Negotiation is about one thing. Winning. How do you define winning in a negotiation? Getting what you want.
Each of us are involved in some kind of negotiation every day. Not only in your profession, but in your general life.
In Negotiations: No Filler, Rich Nichols gives the 5 essentials of negotiations:
Rich Nichols distills his 35 years of experience in Sports, Law, Reputation Risk and
Crisis Management & Communications, Politics, Venture Capital, and Finance into his transformative presentation.
“Until you negotiate something that really matters and is of value, you don’t know what you’re talking about.” – Rich Nichols
Leadership is Personal. Leadership Demands Commitment. Leadership Will Exact a Cost.
Leaders should be aware that the “No Pain, No Gain” mantra of leadership is real…and gratifying.
Leadership is exhilarating!
But, as Rich Nichols recounts his leadership experiences, which include being profoundly unaware of the physical and psychological “wear and tear” that the constant and intense demands leadership can produce, Rich just wants to make leaders aware that there is a personal cost leaders will endure, but, without hesitation, pay to be a leader.
Life is either a dreamy adventure, or a static journey… You get to decide.
People need to like what they do. But doing what you like comes with risk.
COVID caused people to be introspective. Blitheful introspection has created disruption in our standard business practices, and inspired people to seriously consider leaving the comforts of the predictable corporate world to pursue their personal dreamy adventure.
In an endless pursuit of his dreams, Rich Nichols has a passion for the business of sports, politics, law, finance, technology, crisis management, media and communications. After stints in Big Law, government, politics, sports and Silicon Valley, Rich decided to create his career by combining all of his dreamy professional adventures and pursuing them all! He’s been “up” and “down” the road to success and financial disaster five times. “Necessity became the mother of Reinvention” and starting over from square one –five times–with a family to support, taught him the value of mentors, relationships, family, perseverance and resilience.
Ultimately, his dreamy, adventure-fulfilled resume speaks for itself.
“With every entrepreneurial opportunity you pursue, even if you do not achieve your primary objective, you will get something valuable from it. But you have to be willing to take calculated risks, and a lot of people don’t want to take any risks.” – Rich Nichols
