The Art of Negotiation for Young Entrepreneurs and Leaders with Dr. Yasmin Davidds

The Art of Negotiation for Young Entrepreneurs and Leaders with Dr. Yasmin Davidds

“Successful negotiation is not about getting to ‘yes’, it’s about mastering ‘no’ and understanding what the path to agreement is.” -Christopher Voss

When you hear about the skills and characteristics that most entrepreneurs attribute their success to, you'll often find traits like innovativeness, strategic thinking, and time management on the list. You seldom hear about the art of negotiation, and just how useful this skill can be in the realm of entrepreneurship.

Master negotiators thrive in the face of chaos and uncertainty. They’re not enslaved to rigid plans. They understand negotiation as a process of exploration that demands ongoing learning, adapting, and influencing.

Dr. Yasmin Davidds - Master Negotiator

If you’re starting to think that negotiation may be an underrated superpower of top-performing entrepreneurs, I’d love to introduce you to today’s guest on Episode 6 of NextPlay, Dr. Yasmin Davidds.

If anyone knows the true power of negotiating, it’s Dr. Davidds. When she discovered that her mission in life was to change the world and make it a better place for disadvantaged communities - specifically women - she was inspired to develop an institute of programs that would empower them and help them reach their full potential.

Throughout her career, Yasmin has sought to advance the role of women within professional, academic, and corporate settings. She is an organizational psychologist, Founder and CEO of the Latina Global Executive Leadership Institute, and Founder and President of the Women’s Institute of Negotiation.
