About this listen

Silence isn’t awkward; it’s powerful.

In negotiations, and meetings, we often rush to speak, defend, or fill space. But research from MIT Sloan shows that even a three-second pause can transform outcomes. It creates space to think, listen, and discover value neither side had recognized before.

In this Insights episode, I explore how deliberate silence can change the tone, tempo, and results of your most important conversations.
