0:00.0	Hello, my friend, and welcome to another episode of Negotiate Anything. Thanks for spending time with us today.
0:08.0	It's listeners like you in 181 different countries that have made Negotiate Anything the most popular negotiation and conflict resolution podcast in the world.
0:17.6	I'm your host, Kwame Christian. I'm a business lawyer, mediator, professor, and the
0:22.1	director of the American Negotiation Institute. Before we get started, I have two quick questions for
0:26.9	you. Is negotiation a critical part of what you do? Do you need to resolve conflict and persuade at work?
0:32.2	If you answered yes to both of those questions, visit our website to learn more about our negotiation
0:36.6	workshops. We've
0:37.7	traveled the country working with professionals just like you, and we'd love to have the opportunity
0:41.8	to work with you too. Check out the link in the description to learn more. Hey everyone, and welcome to

Is that what you're saying? Then of course they're going to have to say no. Okay. So let's focus on that issue. We can have a conversation about that on another day if you
1:44.9	want to, but right now we're talking about this specific issue. And I think the bigger issue here is
1:50.3	that these are people who are meant to protect and serve, right? That's the biggest issue that we're
1:55.9	dealing with. You're meant to protect and serve and you're using your authority in a way that's
