Why Leaders Fail (and How to Become the One People Respect)

What makes someone inspiring instead of infuriating—and can you learn the difference? In this masterclass edition of Negotiate Anything, Kwame Christian brings together three elite leaders—a Columbia professor, a public affairs executive, and a championship-winning coach—to reveal what persuasive, service-driven leadership really looks like . You’ll learn how to manage egos (including your own), lead with vulnerability, build trust through listening, and turn everyday moments into opportunities for influence. Inspiration isn’t a personality trait. It’s a practice—and this episode shows you how to build it.
