About the Event
Negotiate the life you want.
Learn the skills that have stopped bad guys in their tracks, secured multi-million dollar deals, and saved marriages. At this 2-Day Live Event, you'll learn the foundational skills of Tactical Empathy. You'll be instructed in the philosophy and science behind our methods, why we prefer empathy to sympathy in business settings, and why an empathetic approach is far more successful and useful in negotiations. Participate in group exercises, enjoy a meal with your fellow negotiators, and become a skilled negotiator—in work and in life.
Seats at our events are LIMITED, so don't wait to register!
Core Focuses
Tactical Empathy—Learn the fundamental techniques and skills that make up the Black Swan Method. We'll focus on the central ideas and understanding of Tactical Empathy, why empathy should be the principal starting place for negotiations, and the difference between negotiation and bargaining.
Gathering Information—Did you know that one third of the population hates being asked questions? Learn the skills that can help you gather more information better than direct questions can, and simultaneously helps your counterpart feel more understood.
Dealing with Negative Emotions—Negative emotions are inevitable when negotiating. We'll coach you in how to respond to personal attacks, how to diffuse negative thoughts in your counterpart, and how to create more trust-worthy and long-term relationships.
