Companies facing supply chain disruptions, remote work challenges, and global uncertainties need flexible, adaptive negotiation frameworks. The stakes couldn't be higher, with research showing that organizations with strong negotiation cultures outperform their competitors by up to 25% in securing favorable terms and building sustainable partnerships. Our guest today has developed a groundbreaking approach that transcends conventional negotiation wisdom. His continuum-based framework adapts to the evolving dynamics of business and interpersonal relationships across all sectors, whether you're negotiating a multi-million dollar deal or navigating complex international relations. His new book, "Evolve or Be Slaughtered, Negotiation for the 21st Century," builds upon foundations laid by negotiation pioneers like Chester Karras, William Ury, and Chris Voss, but introduces innovative concepts designed for today's complex landscape and beyond. We'd like to welcome internationally recognized strategist and author, Derek Chevalier.

    On this episode of American Real, Roger asks Derrick about the scope of who could benefit from the skills of negotiaton that he's learned across his career. "Yeah, I think that's so important," Derrick says. "And one of the things I want to talk about and really announce to the world is that really any human interaction involves some part of negotiation. So the difference may be that a well-trained negotiator is aware of that, and somebody who doesn't recognize it doesn't even know that they're involved in a negotiation."

But instead, Cuba descended into communism, aligning with the Soviet Union and becoming a flashpoint in Cold War history. Just two years later, the failed Bay of Pigs invasion, an attempt by U.S.-backed exiles to reclaim the island, marked one of the most pivotal and controversial chapters in U.S.-Cuba relations. Today's guest, Jose L. Gonzalez, brings this era vividly to life in his powerful book, 90 Miles 2.0, The Culprit of Communism in the Americas. Based on actual events, the story follows Pepe, once part of the Fidel Castro's inner circle, who escapes assassination attempts and flees to the US only to return as a CIA operative in a covert mission just before the Bay of Pigs. This is more than a historical thriller. It's a tragic love story, a gripping tale of survival, and a bold uncovering of truths long buried by history.

    On this episode of American Real, Roger asks Jose about his reaction of going through the writing and publishing process. "Yeah, it's been a lifelong effort," Jose says. "It's taken me 30 years to put all the facts together, get all the information, get some of the information that we actually put in the book declassified, as well as, you know, the effort of writing and rewriting and verification of facts and figures to get to this point. And when we published it the first time, there's some polishing that needed yet some to be done. And we finally did it with you and your publishing company."

Drawing from decades of hand-on experience, Paul helps global organizations discover fresh approaches to their work, make more intelligent decisions using data, and find the right balance between human talent and technology. Paul's new book, "The AI Alchemist," will help you gain an understanding of AI and ways to apply high-impact AI opportunities into your business. It will also cultivate essential human skills that complement AI capabilities, empowering you to lead essential human skills that complement AI capabilities, empowering you to lead effective change management for smooth integration.

    On this episode of American Real, Roger asks Paul about his thoughts regarding AI replacing human jobs. "It's a great question, and actually it's the number one question that I'm usually asked when I'm in front of a business leader or in front of an audience," Paul says. " 'Will I lose my job, or how is this going to impact me and my overall job?' If you just take a step back and look at this from an executive or your own personal growth perspective, there's disruption, it's a new technology. Disruption causes fear. There's fear of the unknown and there's fear of change related to that. What I typically see happening is the best business leaders out there are really not just looking at the technology and up your skills or go away for the 30 days and learn 30 applications. They're looking at, 'how do I blend this technology with people and processes?' It's like a 3 legged stool. And is really a foundational component. AI is going to displace jobs, there's no doubt about it, but it's also going to create new jobs and augment existing jobs as well too. So according to the World Economic Forum last year, they're predicting over the next two years, 97 million new jobs will be created in this whole AI industry. Analytics, data, user experience, different ways of working with content. All these new startups are gonna be emerging and creating these new jobs. Existing jobs, if you think about our country, in the US, there's about 136 million employees in North in our United States right now. 80% of them are about 100 million are knowledge workers. So, those are the people that do marketing, sales, HR, writers, service-based, financial professions, doctors, right? So, 80% or 100 million of those people are going to be AI-assisted over the next couple of years. So it's going to augment existing jobs and activity."

He spent his life embracing adventure through surfing, water skiing and scuba diving. A proud Texan, Rick is a father to three children and a grandfather to seven. Today, we'll explore both his groundbreaking work and hydrotherapy and the fascinating story behind his compelling novel.

    On this episode of American Real, Roger asks Rick what gave him the passion to start writing his book. "I'm the kind of person that I'm motivated when you tell me I can't do something, I'm going to prove you wrong and I can do it," Rick says. "I've been like that my whole life. When I went through high school and college, English was not my best subject. I was very good in math and fraternities, but English was not my best subject. When I got out into the business world, I took this aptitude test and I tested very high on it and I realized that you didn't have to be book smart to be smart, and I was tested out that I have a very abstract reasoning mind. And so I identify problems, come up with solutions easy. I was just sitting around one day and it wasn't long after Hurricane Ike hit here, I just wanted to always write a novel. So I started writing. It took me a long time to write, but I finished it up last year. And I'd start and get busy, start again, get busy. And I'd have to go back, and every time I'd go back and restart, I'd have to read it to see where I was and look at all my notes to get back on. I have a good imagination and I just, you know, started putting notes down, kind of put an outline down on what I want to do and that's what came out. When I sat down to write the novel, I had no idea what I was going to write about, but that's what came out and I had fun doing it."

Russell Gaynor, author of "The Forge" Trilogy, "Shadow Guardians" book series. Discovered the power of storytelling at just five years old when he wrote his first story to prove to his grandmother that he could outdo the movies. Inspired by his parents, his father, a Navy man who taught resilience, and his mother, a nurse who instilled compassion. G. Russell's early influences shaped his love for crafting tales that explore the lessons of love. And life from role-playing games to comic books. His creative journey has been fueled by a passion for connecting with audiences through his stories, with four books, 20 screenplays, 2 plays, and countless poems. G Russell continues to captivate and inspire. On this episode of American Real, Roger asks G. Russell to reminisce on his earliest memories of his grandmother, and how his journey of storytelling began. "Well, I'm very fortunate that I have a close-loving family and spending Summers with my grandmother. It was eye-opening, and you would think after the lessons I had learned before that point that I would have kept my mouth shut, but no... as far as the writing was concerned. I wanted to watch cartoons. She wanted to watch black and white movies.... And I told that her black and white movies are boring and I could tell better stories with an arm tied behind my back... She got me a stack of pads and a box of pencils and said 'prove it.' So there I was, Charlie Brown style... and when I finished one pad I looked up and she had that tilted head look like, 'What is this kid doing?' So she started reading, and I'm on the second pad, and she stops me from writing and basically [says,] 'Get your jacket, let's go.' We walk to the local library, she pulls down The Three Musketeers and reads it to me... it just blew my mind, and I've been chasing good stories ever since."

Yet today's guest embodies all three. Dennis J. Henson is the founder and president of Vanguard Marketing and Investments, a renowned leader in both the real estate and personal growth industries, and an educator who has transformed the lives of countless individuals. With over 30 years of experience, Dennis has not only built a successful career but also cultivated a philosophy that empowers others to strive for more. When asked what's had the greatest impact on his students, his answer was simple yet profound: “Form the habit of reading something every day that educates or inspires.” That philosophy is at the heart of his latest book, “Real Impact: Daily Inspiration.” Over the years, Dennis has collected quotes, poems, and empowering stories that moved him personally. His new book shares 32 captivating stories, over 100 inspiring quotes and timeless wisdom, offering readers a powerful foundation for growth, success and fulfillment. Dennis’s approach is rooted in a belief he calls “law of nature,” the idea that planting seeds of health, success and prosperity in our minds will lead to a harvest of abundance multiplied many times over.

    On this episode of American Real, Roger asks Dennis about the imagery inside and the attention to detail that he took when packaging the book so nicely. "At the end of a podcast where I had answered [this] question... I said, you know, 'form the habit of reading everyday, something that moves you towards your ultimate goal.' After that podcast I thought, 'Wouldn't it be great that someone came up with a tool? You know, an app, or a book.' And then it hit me. I said, 'goodness, I've been collecting poems, quotes and success stories for many many years. I can do this. I can take these things I already have and put them together and in 3 months I'll have a book, andwe'll be able to go from there.' Well, that was in 2018 and it got published this year. So for the next 5 and 1/2 years I spent time refining and and changing and taking out things and putting in new things and doing research. The hardest part of putting the book together was I had a hundred stories and if I had put all all of them in there the book would have been, you know, an encyclopedia."
