Holly Schroth, Distinguished Teaching Fellow and Senior Lecturer at Berkeley Haas – The Art of Negotiations
<p>In today’s episode, we chat with award-winning lecturer Holly Schroth who leads classes in Negotiations, Influence, and Communications.</p><p>Holly tells us a little about her history and what brought her to Haas nearly three decades ago to teach Negotiations.</p><p>She also speaks about what makes a good negotiator, her research on Gen Z negotiations, and leaves listeners with some parting wisdom.</p><h3>Episode Quotes:</h3><p><strong>What makes a good negotiation?</strong></p><p>“What makes a good negotiation is that both sides walk away satisfied.”</p><p><strong>Holly’s definition of negotiation</strong></p><p>“My definition is sharing information in order to problem-solve to reach mutually satisfying agreements. I’m not here to talk you into anything, but I’m here to help you think a different way and come to the conclusion yourself that this direction may or may not be best for you.”</p><p><strong>How to influence someone in a positive way</strong></p><p>“The best way to influence someone positively is to ask good questions to get them to think differently. You have to understand their thinking so that you can work with that and understand if that’s not based on factual information or there’s some other information that could be helpful for the person to understand, and then you can work through it. But if you never find out what someone is thinking or why they hold the position they do, then you really cannot influence the person.”</p><h3>Show Links:</h3><ul><li><a href="http://hollyschroth.com/" rel="nofollow">Website</a></li><li><a href="https://haas.berkeley.edu/faculty/schroth-holly/" rel="nofollow">Haas Website</a></li><li><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/holly-schroth/" rel="nofollow">LinkedIn</a></li><li><a href="https://twitter.com/bizinteractions" rel="nofollow">Twitter</a></li></ul>

Zsolt Katona, Professor & Digital Marketing Expert – At the Intersection of Marketing and Technology
H@H: Ep 70 - Professor Zsolt Katona chats with host Nick Gerwe to share his journey to Haas, research initiatives and plans for his core Marketing course for this year’s class of EWMBA’s. Zsolt is a Professor of Marketing at Haas and strives to introduce and excite each new crop of Weekend MBA students to the world that a Marketing perspective can open. With PhDs in Computer Science and Marketing, Zsolt is a born learner, self-described nerd and expert in each aspect of Marketing and Business Analytics he dives into. He brings his research and expertise to the classroom to apply Marketing frameworks and analysis to a series of real world cases, and instill the Marketing intuition necessary for any successful business leader. In explaining how he ended up at Haas, Zsolt praised the university’s openness to academic curiosity and “the freedom, the amount of flexibility that Haas offered and being able to do your research the way you want to, and being very independent and in how you operate as a professor. “ In advising incoming students on how to get the most out of his Marketing course, Zsolt explains, “If you are properly prepared for the class, you get so much more out of it than if you don't read the case” but also recommends they keep their learning goals in context and “that you should not vary about the grades” and instead focus your effort on optimizing their learning, rather than their letter grade.

Heather Whiteman, Professor & People Data Enthusiast – The Power of People Analytics
<p>In this week’s episode, professor <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/heatherwhiteman/" rel="nofollow">Heather Whiteman </a>joins host Ray Guan to talk about all things people analytics (PA). Heather talks about how she became interested in working with data and how she’s spent her career marrying analytics with human capital. We discuss the evolution of data and its effects on PA, including why some data scientists who succeed in the hard sciences fail at PA. Finally, we wrap with why PA is important for all business leaders, and why you should strongly consider adding the PA elective this fall.</p><h3>Episode Quotes:</h3><p><strong>On the uses of PA today</strong></p><p><strong>“</strong>People analytics has become a necessary approach to [measuring] squishy things like knowledge, collaboration, ideas, and goodwill.”</p><p><strong>On the danger of not using human judgment in decision-making</strong></p><p>“If you build these models, but you don’t think about their consequences…they can have ripple effects and […] affect people’s lives, their livelihoods, their families, opportunities, and outcomes.”</p><p><strong>On her PA class</strong></p><p>“It is a class that you have to be comfortable being uncertain. People, analytics is not like physics. It’s not like finance. There aren’t right answers. There is data, there is information, and then there’s a lot of understanding context and situation and outcomes.”</p><h3>Show Links:</h3><ul><li>Heather Whiteman contact: <a href="mailto:%20heatherwhiteman@gmail.com" rel="nofollow">Email</a> | <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/heatherwhiteman/" rel="nofollow">LinkedIn</a> | <a href="https://ikhanatalent.com/" rel="nofollow">Website</a></li><li><a href="https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/5-vs-of-big-data/" rel="nofollow">5 V’s of Data Science</a></li><li>Book rec’s: <a href="https://weaponsofmathdestructionbook.com/" rel="nofollow">Weapons of Math Destruction</a> | <a href="https://datafeminism.io/" rel="nofollow">Data Feminism</a></li><li><a href="https://drive.google.com/file/d/1PgZNsZkqfNQOk-W1pjEdsgJryqNX_KgR/view" rel="nofollow">People Analytics Class Syllabus</a> (login w/ Haas email)</li></ul>
