Jacob Warwick has helped leaders secure over $1 billion in compensation across tech, Hollywood, private equity, and large companies.
But this conversation goes far beyond negotiation tactics.
We talk about the mindset shift from candidate to consultant, why so many people struggle to stand up for their own value, and what it takes to enter the room with dignity, safety, and self-trust.
Jacob also shares the personal experiences that shaped his approach to negotiation, and why learning to speak for yourself is about more than money.
This is a conversation about negotiation, but also about knowing your value before someone else decides it for you.
