Are You Leaving Money on the Table?
Did you know… almost half of workers don’t negotiate salary offers, and men are more likely to negotiate salary offers that women? The process of salary negotiation is challenging for most people, but if you don’t negotiate, you are likely leaving money on the table! This presentation we will discuss some of the reasons why people don’t negotiate, the ramifications of not negotiating, as well as strategies for successful negotiation. We’ll also touch on some of the special challenges that women face at the negotiation table.
