Coach Brian Brunkow

We don't communicate well:

• Workplace: 7% of surveyed employees said work communication is accurate, open and timely. Gallup Poll
• Divorce: 70% of women and 59% of men cited "bad communication" as a cause of divorce. Journal of Divorce & Remarriage 

Your Ex-partner needs two things:

• Substance: Assurance you heard and understand their point of view (what & why), and
• Process: Assurance the negotiation process is fair (status & autonomy)

Framework (what we'll cover):

• Pre-Negotiation: Accounting for Backstory, Saving Face & Triggers
• Negotiation Table: Interest-Based Negotiations, Cognitive Bias & Roadblocks
• Post-Negotiation: Reality Testing, Reciprocity & Revisiting

Not much theory. We'll focus on tools.
