Common Salary Negotiation Scenarios and How to Get What You Want and Deserve, with Monica Rockstroh, Career Pep Talker

Salary negotiations - not easy, and yet so important.  There are so many things I wish I had known as an aid worker when transitioning in my career and negotiating salary--- but unfortunately I learned the hard way and made a lot of mistakes along the way.

My guest today, Monica Rockstroh, is a professional Career Pep Talker and in this episode shares advice around several common salary negotiation scenarios in aid work to help you get what you want and deserve.

Among other topics we cover:

  • Why women struggle in this area more than men
  • What to do if you hear a colleague with the same job title and experience as you is making a lot more money. 
  • How to prepare to ask for a raise in salary and how to manage the process afterwards
  • What to do when an employer asks what your previous salary was in order to estimate the current one
  • When to negotiate salary with your employer and best practices on what to ask for
  • Limiting beliefs around salary negotiations and how they may be holding you back
