Why is it important to bring your own voice and values to a negotiation?
What causes a discrepancy between what someone said and what someone else heard?
In this series on healthcare and social disparities, Dr. Jill Wener, a board-certified Internal Medicine specialist, meditation expert, and tapping practitioner, interviews experts in multiple fields relating to social justice and anti-racism. In this episode, Jill interviews Mori Taheripour, a professor of Negotiation and Dispute Resolution. Listen as she explains her top three tips for navigating difficult conversations and how discomfort is what creates real change. Ms. Taheripour’s nontraditional journey into D&I work highlights the importance of coming into negotiations as human beings and making connections, navigating situations with empathy, and committing to understanding rather than changing others. They talked about the humanity of activism in the athletic space and the necessity to allow athletes to be valued as people with passions and values - not only as means of entertainment.
