The Right Way to Prepare for a High-Stakes Conversation
hbr.org
Most leaders enter high-stakes conversations armed with rehearsed arguments and rebuttals to anticipated objections—mindsets that unknowingly blind them to breakthrough insights and put their relationships at risk. The “Curiosity Check,” a rapid, pre-conversation diagnostic, helps leaders shift from defensive certainty to productive curiosity.
Women at work: Managing up, one conversation at a time

Have you ever realized, partway through a project, that you and your boss aren't on the same page? Maybe your definitions of success differed, or their expectations were unclear. Maybe you couldn't get them to listen, or you couldn't figure out why they insisted on doing things a certain way. Managing up means tackling these disconnects head-on-and doing it through honest, well-timed discussions. Executive coach Melody Wilding joins Amy G to explain why alignment on goals and clarity around working styles are essential. They

The Hidden Traps in Decision Making

Bad decisions often stem from flawed decision-making processes, such as unclear alternatives, insufficient information, or inaccurate cost-benefit analysis. However, the issue can also lie in the decision maker's mindset. Get back to the article from 1998 discussing eight psychological traps that can impact business decisions.

When You Are Asked to Meet Impossible Goals
hbr.org
When change is a constant, employees are now experiencing five times more planned change initiatives than they did just a decade ago. Add unrealistic goals, and the result is predictable: disengagement, burnout, and a sharp decline in execution—in short, widespread change fatigue. Leaders who take on impossible goals don’t do it because they lack judgment—they do it because pushing back feels risky to them. The real leadership skill is not figuring out how to do it all; it’s knowing when and how to push back. That’s where strategic refusal comes in. Strategic refusal is a structured method to force prioritization and push back on unrealistic demands that jeopardize team productivity, morale, or well-being. The idea isn’t to avoid responsibility, but rather to protect the team, maintain long-term performance, and ensure sustainable outcomes—all while safeguarding your reputation.

What People Still Get Wrong About Negotiations
hbr.org
All too often, negotiators fail to share information with their counterparts about preferences on the various issues, fearful that they will be exploited if the other side knows what they value. They keep all their cards hidden and assume that this is the secret to being a tough negotiator. To elicit the information necessary to create value, resolve conflicts, and reach efficient agreements, negotiators should use four key strategies: building trust, asking questions, sharing information, and making multiple offers simultaneously. A fifth strategy is also introduced: the concept of post-settlement settlements (PSS) to improve deals even after initial agreements have been made.

Contract Negotiations Should Be Collaborative, Not Adversarial
hbr.org
Traditional approaches to contract negotiation, heavily focused on risk mitigation, are increasingly misaligned with business needs. New research shows that while companies spend considerable time haggling over legal protections, the most common sources of disagreement during contract execution are practical issues like pricing, scope, and delivery. The path forward requires a fundamental shift in how we approach negotiations. This isn’t about abandoning risk management — it’s about recognizing that the best risk management strategy is often creating clear, practical agreements focused on mutual success.

How to Learn from a Failed Negotiation

Even the best negotiators sometimes fail. When that happens, it is important to consider went wrong so you can do better in the future. Start by understanding the types of failure you can experience, why you’ve failed, and how much it matters. Use this five steps, fix your weaknesses, and, finally, come back to the table with confidence.
