“Lucia’s attention to detail is awesome. She really listens and pays attention. She notices not just what people say, but what they don’t say – the information presented and also what’s missing. She understands people better than they understand themselves. Beyond her smarts and professionalism, Lucia is also a genuinely great person.”
Danny B. – Vice President,
Global Employee Relations, Gap, Inc.
“Professor Kanter St. Amour taught my Negotiation class, and she changed my life! She is an expert, as she takes every opportunity to practice, and she knows that even the most futile and trivial interactions are expressions of negotiations. Her passion for the topic is evident in the way she speaks and acts. She is extremely skilled, and knows all the intricacies involved in negotiations. Her willingness to go beyond the classroom setting demonstrated how important she knows negotiations are for the professional and personal formation of her students. Professor Kanter St. Amour was a true inspiration for me. She is an incredibly positive, smart, intelligent, confident, and kind-hearted woman.”
Student, J.D. – UC Berkeley Law (Boalt Hall) 2012

Susan W. – Office of the General Counsel, Apple, Inc.
“[With] a tough mind and a kind heart, Lucia gets it done. I have seen her in action in litigation, mediation, and training. Her quick intelligence and people skills apply across contexts and make her highly effective. If you are lucky enough to work with her, it’s already a win.”
