Your influence strategy might be costing you the very opportunities you think you’re earning. In this masterclass edition of Negotiate Anything, we expose how staying silent, minimizing your value, or waiting to be “noticed” can quietly undermine your compensation, credibility, and career trajectory. This episode brings together elite leadership and HR perspectives to challenge one of the most dangerous negotiation habits: negotiating down on yourself before the conversation even begins. You’ll learn why high-performing professionals — especially senior leaders — often fail to articulate their true value, how fear distorts negotiation decisions, and why companies expect you to advocate for yourself. From adopting a “mercenary” mindset toward your career, to understanding the full scope of what’s negotiable beyond salary, this conversation reframes negotiation as an ongoing process — not a one-time event at the offer stage. You’ll also discover why personal visibility and pre-negotiation positioning are just as critical as what you say at the table. Whether you’re preparing for a promotion, evaluating an offer, or aiming for the boardroom, this episode equips you with the mindset shifts and practical strategies to normalize discomfort, claim your worth, and negotiate from a position of strength. Key takeaway: Negotiation isn’t confrontation — it’s a dance. And when you’re prepared, confident, and clear on your value, everyone walks away with a better trade.

You don’t lose negotiations because you lack leverage — you lose them because you’re using the wrong approach. In this masterclass episode of Negotiate Anything, we break down three simple, repeatable methods that dramatically improve your negotiating effectiveness at work, without aggression, manipulation, or burning trust. This conversation cuts through the noise to show how everyday workplace negotiations actually work — from salary conversations and promotions to project scope, timelines, and influence across teams. You’ll learn how to prepare with clarity, communicate value with confidence, and recognize the subtle signals that tell you when to push, pause, or pivot. Rather than relying on charisma or confrontation, this episode focuses on practical skills you can apply immediately: reframing requests, anchoring discussions around shared value, and navigating resistance without escalating tension. These methods are designed to help you sound more credible, feel more confident, and walk away with better outcomes — consistently. If you want to negotiate more effectively without changing who you are, this episode gives you the tools to do exactly that.

Stop waiting for your hard work to speak for itself — the silence may be exactly why you're being undervalued. In this masterclass edition of Negotiate Anything, elite voices come together to help you stop "negotiating down on yourself" before you ever reach the table. In this episode, you'll learn: The Power of Self-Advocacy: Heather Spillsbury, COO of 50/50 Women on Boards, reveals why even high-performing leaders underestimate their value — and how a "high-impact soundbite" can instantly elevate your presence to boardroom-ready. The "Mercenary" Mindset: Jasani Courtney, VP of Human Resources, reframes your career as a business transaction — where you intentionally sell your skills to the highest-value opportunity. Why Negotiation Isn't Risky: Discover why it makes zero sense for companies to pull offers simply because you negotiated. The Holistic Offer: Learn how to evaluate total compensation beyond salary — time off, benefits, retirement, and bonuses — so your job supports your life, not the other way around. Pre-Negotiation Marketing: Understand why negotiation starts long before the table, through consistent, authentic visibility of your value. Whether you're pursuing a promotion or a seat in the boardroom, this episode delivers the mindset shifts and practical strategies needed to advocate confidently and secure the compensation you deserve.
