318: Negotiation Isn't The Ask, It's The Experience

What if the key to successful negotiation isn't asking for more—but creating an experience people want to be part of? Discover why the most successful negotiations aren't just about making the right ask—they're about creating the right experience.    In this episode of The Art of Feminine Negotiation, Cindy Watson sits down with marketing and digital strategy expert Shamir Duverseau to explore "Negotiation Isn't The Ask, It's The Experience." Drawing on more than 15 years of leadership in marketing, product management, user experience, digital strategy, and his role as Senior Director of Digital Strategy and Services for Marriott International's Vacation Club Division, Shamir shares how understanding human behavior, trust, and customer experience can transform the way we negotiate. Whether you're leading a team, growing a business, or building stronger relationships, this conversation will help you create negotiation experiences that inspire lasting influence and better outcomes.    In this episode, you will discover:   How do we define negotiation? And what point does the so-called negotiation actually begins? What does clarity actually mean in a negotiation context? How to make someone safe in a conversation? What we can negotiate more effectively without that constant friction or emotional depletion? How can you renegotiate how you show up and get this clarity? What would be the starting zone for you? What is one negotiation that people need to start having with themselves?
