Negotiation Questions That Win And How To Use Them, with Dan Oblinger, Ep #101

There are few people I know who are as competent and smart about how the negotiation questions we use impact the way the conversation goes than Dan Oblinger. Dan's experience as a hostage negotiator coupled with his drive to understand the impact of deep listening is at the root of this superpower. He's a fount of nuanced knowledge and he shares it so generously during this conversation.

We talk about what he calls "Garbage questions" and why they are so bad, why we need to ask questions that deserve to be answered, and how we can KNOW we are utilizing the best questions possible. There is so much information in this episode you should listen to it twice — and take notes both times! Enjoy!
