Ask a Negotiator Episode 1 - The Anatomy of a Good Negotiator

What is the Anatomy of a Good Negotiator?


This is the first question that Philip Williams, Hostage and
Crisis Negotiator and CEDR Trainer tackled in
our #askanegotiator podcast series.


The skills and insights Philip shares in this series are exactly
those that he used to save lives in some of the most challenging
situations, from armed sieges and international hostage-taking to
engaging with people on the brink of committing suicide and
negotiating peaceful resolutions with terrorists.


Having also worked in the commercial world, Philip believes these
same skills can help people save business relationships, personal
reputations and in some cases entire organisations.


The #askanegotiator podcast series is all about
answering the questions on negotiation you want answering. It
doesn't matter if it is theoretical, a specific situation or a
skill you would like help with, we'd love to put your challenge
to Philip.


If you would like to confidentially submit a topic for Philip to
tackle, contact Ben at bthomson@cedr.com.
