🤫 The Silent Strategy: How Saying Nothing Can Seal the Deal! In the world of high-stakes negotiation, silence isn’t just golden—it’s powerful. Too often, we feel the need to fill every pause with words, believing that more talking leads to better outcomes. But here's the truth: Silence can be your greatest ally at the negotiating table. When you resist the urge to fill the silence, you create space for the other party to reveal more than they intended. In those quiet moments, you gain valuable insights into their true intentions, concerns, and flexibility. Why Silence Works: Builds Tension: A well-timed pause can make your counterpart uncomfortable, prompting them to speak more to fill the gap. Reveals Information: People often disclose more when they feel the need to break the silence. You can uncover hidden priorities or objections that give you the upper hand. Shows Confidence: By holding your silence, you demonstrate poise and control, making it clear that you’re not desperate to close the deal at any cost. Next Time You Negotiate: Embrace the pause. Let the silence speak for you. Watch as the conversation unfolds in your favor. In negotiation, sometimes the most powerful words are the ones you don’t say. Are you ready to leverage the power of silence in your next negotiation? Drop a comment below or send me a message—I’d love to discuss how you can master this strategy. 🤝 #NegotiationSkills #BusinessStrategy #Sales #Leadership #DealMaking #ProfessionalDevelopment

Gaining trust is fundamental to good negotiation. If we can gain trust in a hostage, crisis intervention or a life or death situation, we can gain trust in the boardroom, and continue the negotiation for the good of everyone.

We’re scared to ask for more. My client was stuck in a pattern of asking for less during negotiations… She wanted to feel powerful during these conversations She wanted to stay in her centre, and hold her nerve so she could play a bigger game and ask for more But instead she’d panic, get flustered, and feel the pressure. When you do the inner work to get crystal clear on what you want, and learn how to believe that you deserve it…. It’s SO much easier to ask for what you really want And to do it with power. I see so many people undervaluing themselves and their work because they don’t believe they deserve more at the subconscious level . If you come to your negotiation conversations from a place of fear — you won’t get what you really deserve. How can you get more out of life if you don’t believe you deserve it? And if you never learn how to ask for it? —--------------- I’m Firdaoussi Nouzlat ASSOUMANI I write about Negotiation, empowering you to create the life of your dreams with better conversations, better contracts, and better communication.

“No” is not the end! I always say that N O stands for ‘next one’ When you learn how to embrace receiving a “no”, you realize that it can be the beginning of a new conversation. Don’t get offended. Get curious. And say “thank you for letting me know” Ask them for their reasons. Give ideas, and compromises, and alternate solutions. Respect the outcome, and stay positive. When you learn how to get comfortable with hearing “no”... you feel less afraid of asking for more in the future. Just remember…. there’s always the “next one” Why do you think we’re so afraid of hearing the word “no”? —--------------- I’m Firdaoussi Nouzlat ASSOUMANI, I write about Negotiation, empowering you to create the life of your dreams with better conversations, better contracts, and better communication.

In negotiation, empathy is often overlooked, yet it’s one of the most powerful tools a leader can use. Effective negotiation isn’t just about getting what you want; it’s about understanding the other party's needs and concerns. Empathy allows you to see the situation from the other person’s perspective. When you genuinely listen and acknowledge their viewpoints, you create an atmosphere of trust and openness. This not only makes the negotiation process smoother but also lays the foundation for long-term relationships. As your Empathetic Mentor, I can help you to prioritise empathy in negotiations, so you are better equipped to find win-win outcomes. Empathy isn’t a weakness. It’s a strategic advantage that can lead to more successful and meaningful agreements. Send me a DM to book in a session today. #empatheticmentor #ceojourney #winwin #negotiate

Most people think silence is unnecessary during negotiations, the truth is silence can turn the tide of a negotiation AND give you a strategic advantage Let me tell you a story… One of my managers thought I was shy because I wasn’t speaking much during negotiations. But I was listening. The person speaking was giving me a lot of information. And then when I was ready, I came back with my assessment… and my offer. When you have all the information, you have power. The art of negotiating is the art of listening. But some people seem to think it’s about talking the loudest. Don’t make that mistake. Get the information you need… and then make your move. Use silence not only to observe the unsaid but also to self-reflect and manage your emotions to align with the strategies. Do you think listening is a lost art in negotiations? —-------- I’m Firdaoussi Nouzlat ASSOUMANI I write about Negotiation, empowering you to level-up your communication skills and get more of what you want every day Hit my 🔔 for more. #negotiation #leadership #balance #confidence #collaboration 📸Mue Concept
