  • Exceptional

    I took Professor Christensen's class years ago, and this podcast is a fantastic refresher. The negotiation tactics discussed are practical and grounded in reality, which I find incredibly helpful in my day-to-day work. He has a great knack for explaining complex strategies clearly without getting bogged down in academic jargon.

    It’s solid, actionable advice whether you’re a former student or a new listener.

  • Great guests, brilliant host

    Took a negotiations course from Stan at BYU and was learned of the podcast there. He is BRILLIANT and full of great stories. I’ve enjoyed listening to the podcast ever since. 10/10 would recommend for those that are entrepreneurially minded, or just hoping to sharpen the edge to their negotiations skillsets (because we ALL negotiate daily!)
