Episode 127: Giuseppe Conti Negotiation + Influence = Success: Quick Lessons to Help You Win in Corporate Life | The Tim Castle Show
Today I’m joined by someone who truly lives and breathes negotiation and influence.
Giuseppe Conti has led commercial and procurement teams for some of the world’s biggest multinationals — from Procter & Gamble to Novartis and Firmenich — and he now teaches negotiation at Europe’s top 10 business schools (including INSEAD, Oxford and Bocconi) while running CABL, Conti Advanced Business Learning, a training firm that’s shaping the next generation of leaders.
He’s known not just for his frameworks, but for his human, ethical, and deeply practical approach to influence.
Giuseppe has a fantastic new book Negotiation + Influence = Success. In 2025, he was ranked #1 worldwide among the Top 30 Global Gurus for Negotiation and #1 Negotiation Training programs on the world.
For all of you tuning in - ambitious professionals in your 30s, 40s, and 50s - who want to elevate how you influence, lead, and negotiate under pressure… this conversation will change how you see power.
We discuss:
- The difference between influence, negotiation and manipulation
- What levers do procurement pull and what are their KPI's?
- The core tenants of influence
- How to influence across stakeholders within the organization
- The issue with self orientation in negotiations
- How to become an expert negotiator that creates value and claims it
- How AI will change negotiations
Here is the invite to Giuseppe's forthcoming workshop in Singapore on Feb 4-5, 2026: https://www.eventbrite.it/e/1970399606264?aff=oddtdtcreator make sure you check it out.
