Negotiation Advisory Panel
Advisors
| Name | Region | Lens |
|---|---|---|
| Chris Voss | North America | Tactical empathy, calibrated questions, never split the difference |
| Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala | Africa | Multi-lateral negotiation, trade frameworks, institutional deals |
| Carlos Ghosn | Asia | Cross-cultural turnarounds, alliance negotiation, accountability |
| William Ury | North America | Principled negotiation, BATNA, getting to yes |
| Ngaire Woods | Europe | Global governance, institutional design, power asymmetry |
Panel Dynamics
- Tactical vs. principled: Voss uses psychological tactics. Ury insists on principled positions. Both produce results in different contexts.
- Bilateral vs. multilateral: Voss and Ghosn negotiate 1-on-1. Okonjo-Iweala and Woods manage multi-party negotiations. Different muscles entirely.
