معلومات عن هذه الحلقة
In this insightful episode of Rolling Through Negotiations, Matthew yarns with Noa Sheer, Principal Consultant at Sheer Negotiations, Cambridge University Press author, MBA educator, and one of the leading voices in modern negotiation, influence, and persuasion. Noa advises major organisations including Uber, Westpac, PwC, Genesis Energy, and the Australian and New Zealand Defence Forces, and is trusted by C-suites, government departments, and boardrooms across Australia and New Zealand.
Together, Matthew and Noa explore the human side of negotiation: why everything in life is a negotiation, how clarity around interests shapes outcomes, and why empathy remains one of the most underrated tools in high-stakes conversations. Noa shares the frameworks she uses to prepare leaders and teams for billion-dollar deals, and explains how understanding motivations, boundaries, alternatives, and the “real problem” beneath the surface can transform any negotiation.
Noa also reflects on the importance of trust-building, curiosity, perspective-taking, and creative problem-solving, offering practical insights drawn from years of academic research and real-world experience.
This episode is for listeners who want to improve their negotiation skills and for anyone interested in the intersection of human behaviour, communication, and practical influence.
