Key Negotiation Strategies
Know Your Value
Research industry salary benchmarks for your role and experience level. Use this data to anchor your negotiation.
Define Your Walk-Away Point
Decide on your minimum acceptable salary before you start negotiating. It's okay to decline an offer that doesn't meet it.
Listen More Than You Talk
Understand the company's needs and constraints. The more you know, the more effectively you can frame your value.
Focus on Value, Not Want
Frame your arguments around the value and skills you bring to the company, not just your personal salary desires.
Master Your Delivery
Project Confidence
Your tone and body language matter. Practice speaking in a calm, clear, and confident voice.
"Confidence is not 'they will like me.' Confidence is 'I'll be fine if they don't.'"
Embrace the Power of Silence
You don't need to fill every pause. Pausing can often prompt the other party to talk more and reveal information.
"The most crucial part of a negotiation is to know when to be silent."
