HOW TO ASK FOR A RAISE AT WORK

LEARN TO ASK FOR THE SALARY YOU DESERVE AT THE RIGHT TIME AND WITHOUT FEAR OR DIFFICULTY

ABOUT THIS BOOK

You might be asking yourself, “Why doesn’t it have to be difficult to ask for a raise?” The answer is simple: because of the power of preparation. If you’re clear on what you want and why, then you’ve already done most of the work before approaching your boss. And once they say yes, you can celebrate right away!

That said, depending on what kind of workplace culture you live in (and how much your company values its employees), there are some things to consider. For example: if asking for a raise feels like an awkward conversation or even an uncomfortable negotiation where one person wins and another loses—get ready for some stress!

But as long as everyone respects each other’s time and effort at work—which should be happening in every professional environment—it shouldn’t feel like anything more than two people working together towards mutually beneficial outcomes.
