You walk into a high stakes conversation certain you’ll get a green light. One curveball later, you’re staring at a “maybe” or, worse, a flat out no. Today I’m sharing why relying on optimism alone keeps us stuck and how a few minutes of strategic prep can save the day. I’ll show you how my client went from deer-in-headlights to confident negotiator by planning for the answer she didn’t want to hear. You’ll leave knowing exactly how to stay calm, protect your value, and keep the conversation moving when things detour. Get ready to walk in prepared and walk out empowered.
In this episode, I’ll cover:
- Anticipating a no and mapping backup options with the CLAW framework
- Framing pushback so it sounds collaborative, not confrontational
- Using data and market research to anchor your ask on business value
