Alex joins me today to discuss how to reframe what it means to negotiate and how to be a better negotiator. She shares why we settle for less when we could ask for more and how the standard view of negotiation is limited. Alex also highlights how asking the right questions can help people tap into their wisdom and the balance between freely adding value and knowing your worth in business.
“You can still tactfully, collaboratively ask for more and continue to serve, even in the toughest circumstances of our lifetime.” - Alexandra Carter
