Why Great Negotiators Don't Rely on One Technique | Tomo Hachigo, Co-Founder of Sprintlaw

Why Great Negotiators Don't Rely on One Technique | Tomo Hachigo, Co-Founder of SprintlawWhat if becoming a better leader had less to do with frameworks, gurus or negotiation techniques and more to do with being authentic, staying curious and genuinely connecting with people?In this episode of RTN, Matthew sits down with Tomo Hachigo, Co-Founder of Sprintlaw, to explore why empathy, authenticity and curiosity often outperform tactics when it comes to negotiation, leadership and building strong relationships.Having grown up in Australia and now based in Japan, Tomo reflects on why the move wasn't the dramatic cultural rediscovery many people might expect. Instead, it reinforced the principles that shaped Sprintlaw, an award-winning online law firm using technology to make legal services simpler and more accessible.Rather than offering quick negotiation hacks, this conversation explores the mindset behind meaningful conversations, better leadership and creating outcomes where everyone feels heard.If you enjoy conversations about business, leadership, negotiation and personal development, this episode is for you.Thanks for listening and until the next one, take care.OSS!Connect with Tomo:• Learn more about Sprintlaw: Sprintlaw• Follow Tomo Hachigo on LinkedIn: LinkedInMore RTN Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/rtnegotiations/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@RTNegotiationsSend in a question or comment via text.
