Derrick Chevalier’s life and leadership cannot be captured through ordinary labels. To call him visionary or inspirational, as he often insists, is not for him to decide. Those terms, he believes, are best attributed by others, in hindsight and with perspective. What defines Derrick Chevalier instead is a unique fusion of wanderlust, insatiable curiosity, and a richly textured blend of personal and professional experiences. These pillars do more than shape his worldview; they fuel a lifelong commitment to transformation, both for himself and those around him. As the founder and developer of the Comprehensive Negotiating Strategies Universal Framework (CNSUF™), Derrick has spent more than a decade challenging orthodoxy in the negotiation landscape and forging a legacy that stands apart from the giants of the field.
