Ask: Women & Negotiation
Learn to ask for what you want with confidence & ease
​
​
Did you know that women who
don’t negotiate first time salaries
lose out on three quarters of a
million dollars over the course of
a 45-year career? And this doesn't
include additional wealth tied to
salary, such as bonuses, stock
options, and pensions.
​
What is it that prevents women
from negotiating for themselves?
​
For many, it is a very loud voice
(if you are lucky there is only one!)
inside their head that screams, "why can't you just be happy with what you have?","don't get too pushy!", or "what makes you think you're deserving of more?".
​
The good news is that voices can be quelled and have nothing to do with talent or capabilities.
​
When you learn how to ask for what you want with tact, diplomacy and confidence, a world of opportunities will open to you and transform your life.
