Closing deals and winning negotiations can feel like an uphill battle, especially when clients are hesitant, defensive, or unresponsive. Many business professionals unknowingly create resistance by using the wrong approach, like pushing for a "yes" too soon, failing to address unspoken objections, or relying on email instead of in-person communication. How can you use proven negotiation techniques to turn difficult conversations into fruitful deals?

According to former hostage negotiator Derek Gaunt, business professionals can close more deals by applying hostage negotiation techniques to their pitches. He advises beginning with an “accusations audit,” which acknowledges potential objections up front to reduce resistance from prospects. Rather than trying to secure the deal too soon with questions requiring a “yes” response, you can ask “no-oriented” questions phrased like “Would you be against…?” to make clients feel in control and more willing to engage. Derek also suggests testing verbal agreements at least twice to ensure commitment and prevent last-minute roadblocks in negotiations.

In this episode of What The Teck?, Rolando Rosas interviews Derek Gaunt, Negotiations Trainer and Coach at The Black Swan Group, about applying hostage negotiation strategies to business deals. Derek explains why emotions dictate responses in negotiations, how to identify manipulation, and the role of the amygdala in facilitating difficult conversations.

Leading Neuroscientist: Why 50% of Your Life Is Lived in a Daydream | Dr. René Rodriguez 41:55

René Rodriguez is a renowned keynote speaker, leadership advisor, and the best-selling author of Amplify Your Influence, which offers practical strategies to enhance communication and leadership skills. With over 27 years of experience, he has applied behavioral neuroscience to address leadership, sales, and change management challenges. René created the AMPLIFII™ course, a methodology that has trained over 100,000 professionals worldwide. In this episode… In today’s hyperconnected world, the constant barrage of notifications, digital content, and virtual interactions has left many struggling with shortened attention spans, weakened interpersonal connections, and difficulty staying present. As more professionals transition to remote and hybrid work, how can we reclaim focus, foster meaningful connections, and lead effectively? According to behavioral neuroscience expert René Rodriguez, storytelling, social media, and virtual communication impact how the brain processes and stores information. To reclaim focus, he suggests reducing social media consumption and replacing it with activities that stimulate creativity, such as puzzles or focused time blocks for thinking. Through attention-narrowing exercises, like staring at a single point to build concentration and the “40 for 30” technique — giving someone 40 volts of full attention for 30 seconds — leaders can foster meaningful interactions. René also recommends employing narrative storytelling techniques and upgrading your virtual setup to enhance presence, engagement, and communication. In today’s episode of What The Teck?, Rolando Rosas and Dave Kelly sit down with René Rodriguez, who talks about the neuroscience behind influence and communication. René explores the effects of doom scrolling, how leaders can counter negativity bias through storytelling, and how to maintain an optimal tone during interactions.…

James Thomson is the Managing Partner at Equity Value Advisors, where he advises brand executives and investors on accelerating e-commerce revenues and aligning distribution and pricing strategies. He serves on the boards of and invests in companies such as Mamenta, Davinci Micro Fulfillment, and MAVI.io. Previously, James was the Chief Strategy Officer at Buy Box Experts, a managed services agency that assists brands in optimizing their online sales channels as well as investors of businesses selling on Amazon. Before Buy Box, he served as the Business Head of Amazon Services, the division responsible for recruiting tens of thousands of sellers annually to the Amazon marketplace, and he was the Senior Manager for Fulfillment by Amazon (FBA). In this episode… Amazon has evolved beyond just a marketplace; it is now a data-driven company that leverages first-party consumer insights to dominate digital advertising. As generative AI reshapes online shopping, Amazon uses its vast data resources to enhance customer experiences, refine search results, and expand its advertising reach. How can retail-first brands break into this competitive space? While Walmart remains a major player in retail, its e-commerce strategy differs significantly from Amazon’s. Rather than directly competing, Walmart focuses on converting its in-store shoppers into online customers, leveraging its physical presence to drive digital growth. However, many traditional retail brands struggle to adapt to Amazon’s algorithm-driven marketplace, where competitor brands thrive by optimizing keywords, pricing competitively, and constantly innovating. According to Amazon veteran James Thomson, brands that invest in data-driven decision-making, continuously refine their product listings, and adapt to Amazon’s evolving algorithms can increase visibility and outperform competitors. In this episode of What The Teck? , James Thomson, the Managing Partner at Equity Value Advisors, joins Rolando Rosas to discuss the shifting dynamics of Amazon’s online marketplace. He explains Amazon’s evolving role in social commerce, how Amazon uses first-party data to influence customer experiences, and the importance of blocking out your calendar for family time.…

Ellen Frank-Miller, PhD, is the Founder and CEO of WORC (Workforce & Organizational Research Center), an applied research and evaluation consultancy creating an inclusive economy for worthwhile jobs. She has spent her 30-plus year career collaborating with employers, investors, national advocates, and community-based organizations to enhance jobs and make them more accessible. As an organizational scholar, Ellen spent 15 years in human resource consulting, creating evidence-based programs and policies. Before launching WORC, she founded and led the Workforce Financial Stability Initiative at Washington University’s Social Policy Institute. In this episode… Decades of research have shown that higher-paying jobs and profit-sharing programs for frontline workers lead to increased engagement and retention and a healthier bottom line for organizations. Yet, many companies hesitate to implement these incentives, not recognizing their widespread value. How can frontline managers effectively communicate the advantages of these initiatives to executives while aligning them with company goals? According to workforce researcher Ellen Frank-Miller, companies that align employee ownership programs with performance observe frontline workers taking responsibility for their contributions. These incentives encourage employees to pursue professional development opportunities and further their careers. Ellen advises frontline supervisors to communicate openly with their team and collaborate with them to solve problems. They can then convey the results to executives to foster a dialogue about profit-sharing and employee ownership plans. While implementing these incentives into larger corporations may involve legislation, smaller, locally owned businesses can integrate them into their succession plans. Welcome back to What The Teck? as Ellen Frank-Miller, PhD, Founder and CEO of WORC (Workforce & Organizational Research Center), returns to talk with Rolando Rosas about how employee ownership programs benefit companies and workers. Ellen explains how to align employee incentives with organizational goals, her research into human capital management and value creation, and how to invest in frontline employees and give them opportunities.…

James Morrison is the Senior Director of Security Programs at Intelisys, a hybrid technology distributor owned by ScanSource. For more than 20 years, he was a Computer Scientist for the FBI, where he served as a local tech expert to Special Agents and Task Force Officers, assisted in computer intrusion investigations, and reverse-engineered software to determine the source and purpose of malignant codes. James was also a UNIX/Database Administrator with the US Air Force. In this episode… The internet’s rapid growth has fueled elaborate and sophisticated cyber attacks using AI, which can hack into company software systems at alarming speeds. With the rising rate of threats and attacks, companies struggle to identify vulnerabilities, and 71% of organizations lack knowledge of proper cybersecurity measures. How can you cross-collaborate with internal teams to build a robust cybersecurity program for your business? Having successfully managed major cyber threats to the FBI, computer scientist James Morrison understands firsthand the dangers of relying solely on insurance companies to mitigate damage caused by attackers. The companies often don’t reimburse everything, and they can’t cover reputational damages or devastation resulting from individuals exploited by the attackers. Instead, companies must take a proactive approach by advocating for robust security measures. This involves separating IT from security efforts, aligning these efforts with organizational goals, obtaining external expertise, and communicating company threats in a universal language. Welcome back to What The Teck? with Rolando Rosas, who interviews James Morrison, the Senior Director of Security Programs at Intelisys, about the importance of security in protecting your company from growing cyber threats.

Sharon K. Gillenwater is a SaaS startup advisor, mentor, and coach for aspiring tech entrepreneurs. As a tech startup founder and executive, she built, scaled, and sold Boardroom Insiders — an award-winning Inc. 5000 SaaS business intelligence platform — for $25 million in 2022. Sharon recounts this journey in her book Scaling With Soul. After gaining experience in the tech and marketing space in San Francisco, she became an independent consultant working for major tech companies, including Cisco, Microsoft, Oracle, Adobe, Sun Microsystems, and Google. In this episode… Founding a business with investments from venture capital may make the process easier initially, but when it comes time to sell the company, you may not receive your fair share of the equity. How can bootstrapping your company lead to greater returns upon exiting? SaaS advisor and founder Sharon K. Gillenwater founded her VC-backed email newsletter company during the peak of the dot-com bubble. When the bubble burst, her investors dropped her business as a portfolio company despite Sharon’s attempts to restructure the business model. With this valuable lesson, she bootstrapped her next company, scaling it fast until she was approached by a private equity firm that offered to purchase the business. The exit process was grueling, but Sharon walked away with $9 million after a final sale of $25 million, a significantly higher personal return than if her company had been backed by VC. Bootstrapping your business allows you more control over each step of the process, from scaling to selling. Join Rolando Rosas and Dave Kelly in the latest episode of What The Teck? as they interview SaaS startup advisor and founder Sharon K. Gillenwater about selling her bootstrapped tech company.
