In this episode of Negotiation Made Simple, John Lowry sits down with high school teacher and coach Tristan Wheeler to explore the unexpected parallels between education and negotiation. Tristan shares how teaching seniors and coaching soccer have shaped his understanding of influence, transformation, and connection. Together, they unpack powerful concepts like closing the gap between where someone is and where they could be, the importance of empathy over expertise, and the joy found in introducing new ideas. From pre-mortems and post-it note lesson plans to Lumineers lyrics and Trader Joe’s flower stories, this conversation is packed with wisdom for anyone looking to lead, teach, or negotiate with purpose.
