“If we’re on the defensive and we think they’re out to cheat us, or take advantage of us, we may shift a lot of our processing power, a lot of our bandwidth, to defensive measures, looking for ways that they’re trying to take advantage of us and we kind of built out these walls.”

“You may see predatory tactics in the negotiation table. They may use powerful psychology, like 1) framing effect, 2) prospect theory, 3) and loss aversion, to help you frame your thought process maybe instill a little bit of fear and neediness in you.”

“There are 3 reasons to ask questions in negotiation: 1) we want to build vision and help our respected opponent – the adversary – see along their decision path, 2) we want to gather information so that we can begin to understand what’s going on and 3) we ask for a decision to be made. How we phrase those questions are key to effective negotiating.”

“When we’re negotiating it’s really part of our job to figure out who all the influencers are in this negotiation. There might be co-decision-makers (like a spouse, for ex) as well. Then there’s “blockers”, who are people that serve as an the offensive line. They’re trying to save energy & time of the real decision-makers, so they form a service at blocking your access to them. Like a filter. Blockers don’t always know they’re blockers, either, or consider themselves as that.”

Behind the scenes
Dr. David Norris is a practicing anesthesiologist who is dedicated to improving the business intelligence of all healthcare providers. When he’s non-clinical, he serves as a consultant and educator, helping practices survive and thrive. He completed medical school at the University of Kansas School of Medicine and an anesthesiology residency and fellowship in cardiovascular
anesthesia at Vanderbilt University.
Dr. Norris was always interested in the business side of health care and medical practices and has spent years studying those fields. He earned an MBA after he realized he was not adequately prepared to operate a business. The medical education system had let him down. Today, his mission is to help other physicians gain the business intelligence they need to have their desired practice.
Dr. Norris shares his knowledge via writing, teaching, speaking, and his podcast, The Financially Intelligent Physician with David Norris, MD, MBA which is available on Apple Podcasts, Google Play, Spotify, and Pandora.
