About Kwame Christian

Built — not born —
to change the room.

As an author, podcast host, and trainer responsible for helping some of the biggest companies in the world negotiate million dollar deals, most people assume that I've always been a confident leader.

But the truth is I wasn't born this way. I built myself this way. Rejection and isolation sunk their teeth into me at an early age. As a first generation Caribbean American who grew up in small-town Ohio, nobody wanted to be my friend — and it devastated me.

"I learned to negotiate with myself and always win — and I can show you how too."

Today I'm proud to be the host of the #1 Negotiation podcast in the world, a LinkedIn Top Voice, a best-selling author, and regarded as one of the top global thought leaders on negotiation and conflict resolution.

"Working with Kwame Christian has been an exceptional experience. He took our complex and often ambitious ideas and transformed them into clear, compelling content that deeply resonated with our teams. His professionalism, preparation, and ability to meet the moment, both in tone and substance, are unmatched. In all my years working with facilitators, I've never seen someone not only meet such complex learning objectives but do so with to-the-minute timing. It's why we're eager to bring him to our newest Allyship Learning Series next month."
