Each time you make a decision, especially in a group setting, you are likely to be in a negotiation situation. Sometimes it is quite obvious; at other times, it is not.
But one thing is clear that effective communication is directly proportional to effective negotiation. Better communication often translates into better negotiation. In today's episode, we will try and understand more about negotiation and get a few tips to get better at it.
In this episode, we are talking about:
Dr. Savvas Trichas is a powerful keynote speaker who combines cutting-edge research with instruction creating motivational moments with practical value. He is a 3-times TEDx speaker (Las Vegas/USA, Lausanne/Switzerland, Athens/Greece). He has collaborated with several prestigious universities and organizations such as Stanford University, the University of Durham, the Ministry of Education and Culture, The Million Dollar Round Table, and the Association of Cyprus Banks.
He is also associated with the FBI National Academy Associates Cyprus Police, where he serves as a guest lecturer on management, communication, and deception detection.
In addition, Savvas Trichas is a Ph.D. holder in Human Resources Management and Marketing reviews manuscripts for international high-impact scientific journals related to leadership and organizational behavior, such as The Leadership Quarterly. His research interests focus on a specific nonverbal area, facial expressions, with his scientific publications ranking globally #1 and #2 in Google Scholar under the terms "leadership" and "facial expression." To be able to do so, he had to study the human face in depth. Consequently, he became an officially certified coder in the facial action coding system (FACS). FACS is a highly valid, widely used tool that combines anatomy with photo or video analysis observation to define exact facial muscle movement and intensity (Ekman, Friesen, & Hager, 2002; Trichas, 2015).
Finally, when he's not on stage, Savvas is on TV analyzing important concepts of his expertise such as body language, leadership, lie detection, and psychology of communication.

It sounds like a play of words that we are human beings and not human doings. And yet, most people are focused on doing things rather than being.
The answer isn't that simple, as I have heard both sides of the argument. Some say that they focus on doing to be something or someone. At the same time, others say that they focus on being someone to do something.
So, in today's episode, Ben and I are talking about the power of being and his new book.
In this episode, we are talking about:

Speaker, coach, and author, Ben's innovative worth leading organizations, senior executives, and entrepreneurs have brought him international acclaim.

They say that anyone can answer a question but it takes smarts to ask the right question. And while it is true, questions and answers cannot be seen in siloes. They are always connected for obvious reasons. But more importantly, it is not just a question that needs smarts, but also an answer that needs intelligence.
While a long-winded response is not a preferred answer, a concisely given incorrect answer is equally useless. So, what is Answer Intelligence (AQ), and how to develop it? I am talking with Brian Glibkowski in this episode to discuss more on it.
In this episode, we are talking about:
Dr. Brian Glibkowski is passionate about the role of questions and answers in business and society. Brian is an internationally recognized scholar. He is a recipient of the Emerald Citation of Excellence Award. His academic article was selected as one of the top 50 globally from 15,000 management articles in 300 peer-reviewed publications worldwide. His research on the six WH-questions (what, why when, where, who, how) as the Association of Human Resource Development recognized a common framework for communication and decision-making as one of ten articles that will shape the 21st century. He is a pioneer of a new science of answers called Answer Intelligence (AQ)™. He is the author of the book Answer Intelligence: Raise Your AQ (2021). Through AQ certification and associated assessments and tools, AQ is used by certified partners in the USA, UK, UAE, India, and Australia to benefit forward-thinking organizations worldwide.
Dr. Glibkowski is a Professor and CEO of Semplar Science, the company established to commercialize his research. Learn more at www.RaiseYourAQ.com.
