Eps 657: Attia Qureshi and negotiating with teens
from Joyful Courage for Parenting Teens · host Casey O'Roarty
Negotiation isn't a boardroom skill—it's a parenting skill, and every hard conversation with our teens is a training ground. In this episode, I talk with negotiation expert Atiya Qureshi about asking for what we need, managing our own emotional storms, and finding the relational middle ground between passive and aggressive. We dig into understanding interests over positions, the internal negotiation we have with ourselves first, and why being listened to opens our kids up to hearing us. Come learn alongside me. Guest Bio: Attia Qureshi is the founder of Attia Qureshi Consulting and an adjunct at the University of Michigan's Ford School of Public Policy. A former instructor at MIT Sloan and the Ross School of Business, she has worked on behalf of the US State Department in conflict zones around the world. She is the co-author, with John Richardson, of Never Settle: Persuasion and Negotiation Skills to Get What You Want (Simon & Schuster).
