Previously on 97% Effective, Professor Margaret Ann Neale from Stanford discussed the core ideas from her must-have book on negotiation, Getting (More of) What You Want. But in the example we used, one of Michael’s clients who was negotiating a promotion, we left out one very important fact: The client was a woman. In this continuation episode, Maggie clarifies how gender influences negotiation and how women can negotiate more effectively. We discuss techniques for approaching negotiation as a woman, the influence of intersectionality within the workplace and optimizing team performance.
