  <itunes:subtitle>Todd Caponi is one of the most downloaded guests in the history of this podcast.  Todd first joined the show to share the power of transparency in sales.  He rejoined a couple of years later to share his insights around the power of transparency in sales leadership.  And today Todd shines the power of transparency in a crucial element of any sales process:  Negotiations.  Todd shares how we DON’T have to act like a hostage negotiator to get a deal done and why it is important to remember that the negotiation process shouldn’t turn a partnering relationship into an adversarial one.  Todd provides every leader with a framework you can use to transform how you negotiate so a completed deal leaves your clients inspired rather than relieved that it is over in an episode you will want to share with every member of your team.</itunes:subtitle>
