Leverage

We're going back into the archives to one of our most popular episodes of all time, Chris Voss! Chris is the author of the best-selling book Never Split the Difference, a book that covers some of the highly-effective negotiation tactics and strategies Chris learned during his 24 years as an FBI hostage negotiator and lead international kidnapping negotiator. If you've never heard this episode, you do not want to miss it—and if you have, you'll probably want to listen to it again!

As lead hostage negotiator for the FBI, when an American citizen was kidnapped in any part of the world, it was his responsibility to create a strategy to get them out—and then go after the bad guys. In this episode, you'll hear some of his best stories from his days in the FBI and learn how he used simple questions, techniques, and mindset tricks to navigate the tense and dangerous waters of international hostage situations. But Chris also explains how the same tactics he used to get people out of life-threatening situations can be used in business and everyday life—to help you get what you want without compromising.
