For this week’s episode, we’re sharing Gerta’s recent conversation on the “Glasp Talk” YouTube series with Glasp cofounders, Kazuki Nakayashiki and Kei Watanabe. Glasp is a social web-highlighting tool that helps readers capture, organize, and share knowledge, empowering users to amplify their human insights with AI-driven intelligence.

This talk dives into Gerta’s journey from MIT-trained engineer to negotiation coach, why she and Alex focus on “gentle power,” and exactly how to grow the pie so that both sides leave the table happier.

Topics including:

• Stop over-sharing: how revealing your “other offer” (or personal plans) too early shrinks your leverage.
• Get it in writing: why a signable offer letter is your negotiation launch-pad, and what to do when HR keeps stalling.
• Offer component flexibility: base, equity, sign-ons, perks, and understanding which levers move at startups vs Big Tech.
• Global nuance: tailoring your ask when you’re negotiating in Europe, Asia, or Latin America.
• The AI question: why today’s chatbots still hallucinate, and why Gerta sticks to human-crafted language for high-stakes talks.
• Community as a superpower: how building founder circles and mastermind groups sharpens both deal flow and soft skills.
