STATE YOUR CASE!
If you want negotiating power you have to show up prepared to make your case. And I’m not just talking about business. Most interactions you have are a form of negotiation. You’ve got to do your due diligence before you make a big ask.
Research the relationship dynamic before, understand the room well before you walk in and decide how you want to be received.
It’s not about pretending to have confidence or the “X” factor, those things will only get you IN the room, you need a lot more to actually OWN the room and CLOSE the deal. It’s about knowing the market, the landscape, the options and having the ability to decide what you’ll tolerate.
Most people skip the research and wonder why they keep ending up in positions they didn’t choose.
Do the work first so instead of reacting, you can start positioning. That’s the most powerful thing you can do in any negotiation.
