Author: Matt Bodnar September 9, 2023 Duration: 51:47
Do you feel uncomfortable in conflict with others? Do you experience fear and anxiety when dealing with tough situations? Most negotiation tactics and strategies assume you’re already a master negotiator with nerves of steel - that’s the wrong starting place. In this episode we discuss how you can get comfortable with having tough conversations and build the foundation to become a real master of negotiation - using a simple and easy to apply framework. We discuss how you can deal with tough situations and conflict from a place of poise, curiosity, and confidence with our guest Kwame Christian.

Matt Bodnar hosts The Science of Success, a conversation grounded in the practical application of research rather than abstract theory. Each episode moves beyond simple self-help platitudes, instead dissecting the mechanics of decision-making, the hidden patterns of psychology, and the frameworks that high performers use to navigate complexity. You’ll hear from a diverse range of experts-from entrepreneurs and scientists to authors and researchers-who share actionable insights drawn from evidence, not just anecdote. The discussions are structured to unpack how our minds work, why we behave the way we do in business and social settings, and what tangible steps we can take to refine our processes and habits. This isn't about quick fixes; it's a deep, ongoing exploration of personal and professional development through a lens of rigorous inquiry. By focusing on data-driven strategies, this podcast provides a reliable resource for anyone looking to cut through the noise and understand the foundational principles behind lasting growth. Tune in for thoughtful analysis and conversations that challenge conventional wisdom, all aimed at helping you build a more effective and examined life.
