Are you planning on negotiating a promotion? Our four crucial tips will help you advance your career.
● Know your worth: communicate your value to your employer. How can additional responsibilities, for example, translate to better bottom-line results for the company?
● Set goals. Think: what do you want to get out of this meeting? Specific, well-considered objectives (e.g. salary expectations, job title, skill aspirations) will increase your likelihood of achieving them.
● Prepare for every scenario. Anticipate every response from your employer. It will make you better prepared to provide evidence-based responses in the heat of the moment.
● Stay professional: remain objective, respectful and courteous throughout. If your employer cannot grant you an immediate promotion, your positive attitude will move you closer to future opportunities.
