If you want a glimpse into the conversations experienced negotiators have on a daily basis—a sort of "scotch talk"—tune in to this episode of Negotiations Ninja! Dan Oblinger and Allan Tsang join me for a Q&A session where we dispel some common myths about negotiation. We chat about changing your mindset and viewing negotiation as a craft—not a gimmick.

Dan Oblinger is a business consultant and negotiation coach with 10+ years of crisis negotiation experience under his belt.

Allan Tsang, by day, is a negotiation coach and trainer to executives, entrepreneurs, and professionals. By night...he is also a negotiation coach and trainer—working with people in Asia.
