Summary

Chris Voss is a Former FBI Hostage Negotiator, Best Selling Author, and Businessman. A career of high-stakes interaction has opened Voss up to the nuance of human nature, and through a very scientific approach, not only does he break down what it takes to level with and empathize with life-threatening terrorists, but also a business associate. From the strength of “no” to the worthlessness of compromise, Voss and Jen discuss the ins and outs of hostage negotiation to the ups and downs of interpersonal relationships. Curious what insight an FBI Hostage Negotiator could possibly have on business, hustle, and success? Yeah, us too. Don’t miss out.
