In high-stakes conflict, the greatest power is knowing when to pause.

In this episode, Kwame Christian sits down with William Ury, Harvard negotiation master, co-founder of the Harvard Program on Negotiation, and co-author of the global bestseller "Getting to Yes." But beyond the books and accolades, Ury reveals his most profound secret — "Going to the Balcony."

William Ury shares the gripping story of how this simple yet transformative technique helped him navigate high-stakes conflicts, including an explosive crisis in Venezuela that nearly spiraled into civil war. Ury explains how stepping back — both mentally and emotionally — is the ultimate power move, whether you're negotiating a billion-dollar deal, resolving a family dispute, or defusing an international crisis.

Listeners will discover:

  • The surprising power of silence and how it can change any negotiation.

  • How to use "Going to the Balcony" to maintain control in the most intense situations.

  • Why mastering yourself is the key to mastering any conflict.

  • Real-world stories where Ury’s method transformed impossible negotiations.

If you’ve ever struggled to keep your cool in tough conversations, this episode is your blueprint for turning chaos into clarity. Listen in and learn the technique that has saved lives, brokered peace, and transformed the way the world negotiates.
