From Conflict to Cooperation: HR Lessons from a Hostage Negotiator

Join us for an engaging session with Scott, who will take you behind the scenes of negotiation and leadership concepts that are vital for HR professionals. In this interactive program, you’ll explore key elements such as communication, connection, persuasion, and influence. Scott will introduce a principle-based framework that empowers you to implement the power of persuasion, even when under pressure.

Attendees will gain valuable insights into how people make decisions and learn how to apply influence techniques to steer them in a positive direction. We’ll also dive into effective communication strategies, including active listening and impactful delivery.

By the end of this session, you’ll walk away equipped with the same knowledge and techniques used by crisis and hostage negotiators. You’ll understand how to apply these skills to strengthen your leadership, improve internal and external customer service, and drive success within your teams.
