War-game a negotiation or a pay talk
Rehearse the conversation with AI playing the other side, so the real one holds no surprises.
Set the scene
Describe who you are meeting, what you want, what they want and what each of you can give.
Ask it to play them, firmly
Ask the assistant to play the other side as a tough but fair negotiator, and to stay in role.
Play three rounds
Make your case, hear the pushback, adjust. Try one round where you ask for more than feels comfortable.
Debrief out of role
Ask it to step out of role and tell you where you were strongest, where you gave ground too early, and what to say first next time.
Try it now
Rehearse your next pay conversation.
