What if negotiation wasn’t about going to combat or coming out the winner? What if, instead, it was about communication, clarity, confidence, and a little creativity? In this episode of No More Mondays, I sit down with Patrick Griffin, fractional CFO, negotiation expert, and the most charming finance guy you’ll ever meet, to reframe how we think about negotiation. From asking for a raise to simply asking for what you need, Patrick and I talk about the hard truth behind why most of us don't get what we want: we never ask. This conversation explores how to negotiate like a human (not a robot), why hearing "no" is actually a win, and how curiosity and a genuine smile can alter the outcome. Whether you’re chasing 223 yeses or just trying to stop settling, this one’s for you!
