Strategic Conversations
Winning Communications Strategies for Life’s Most Important Interactions
Written by Charlie Pesti and Chris Voss, Former FBI Hostage Negotiator,
with other professionals from around the world.
A Book Beyond My Comfort Zone
Writing Strategic Conversations has been one of the greatest challenges of my life.This isn’t just a book—it’s a piece of my life. Strategic Conversations is more than a collection of strategies; it’s a deeply personal account of where I’ve been, the lessons I’ve learned, and how communications shaped my path to where I am today.
Writing this book pushed me in ways I never expected—it forced me to reflect and to step far beyond my comfort zone. But that’s exactly why I had to do it.
To make this journey even more powerful, I teamed up with some of the brightest minds, including former FBI hostage negotiator Chris Voss, whose insights on high-stakes conversations are nothing short of transformative. And alongside us, other professionals from around the world share their own hard-earned lessons about the power of communication.
Because it’s never about winning negotiations or perfecting your pitch—it’s about understanding how the right words, at the right moment, can change everything.
