Negotiate a Win – Win Compensation Package

·         Pay might often be the primary motivator for work; but don't base your salary expectations solely on your current earnings. Depending on the position, there could be other forms of compensation: i.e.: annual bonuses or sign-on bonuses.

·         Establish what your priorities are and how compensation factors into the equation.

·         Demonstrate your worth to the interviewer by detailing your accomplishments.                                    

·         Don't get bogged down in conversations about your current earnings; gear the conversation to the worth of the position or the skills and experiences you have.

·         Ask the interviewer to describe the salary range rather than suggesting what you are hoping to earn.

·         Leverage other factors to your advantage such as a forthcoming salary increase or that you're assessing other potential employment situations.

Think big picture. If the offer matches your criteria - job description, reporting manager, working environment, company policies and mission - get the best compensation package you can while maintaining your qualifications for the job

The Difference a day makes:

I was happy with my Thursday Radio Interview but chocked-up on Saturday at the passing of Whitney Houston. Whitney’s songs inspired me to press-on and believe. Her music provided me with the concept I would later use to write the book “Why Not Me”. If you haven’t already, please get your copy of my book: “Why Not Me” today. The web link is below:
