Australian Finance Podcast · Negotiating a pay rise in 2022 with Meggie Palmer · 29 Nov 2021 podcast

Yeah, I can definitely see the providing a band as a much more comfortable way of opening that conversation and saying, do you earn over six figures or do you?

And along with the preparing your evidence packet and practicing that salary negotiation conversation with a few of your friends and family, are there any other strategies that listeners should be thinking about putting into place before they enter that conversation?

And if you get one of the responses that fall into that maybe or no category because there's no budget, they don't have the permission to authorise a pay rise over 10% and they have to take it to the board, what are your strategies there?

Yeah, and I think sometimes we can get put off by that initial response where they just say, not sure or no, and then we kind of back off from there and we don't even try going back with an account offer, which is really the point of negotiation.

You don't always meet in the middle immediately.

There's sometimes a number of meetings of back and forth there.

And it sounds like there's a lot of homework one has to do before preparing for this solo negotiation, not just getting your file of all your successes over the year, but actually diving into your industry and your workplace to see how these conversations have gone in the past and how you should be approaching that as well.

And it's worth remembering the person in the conversation, maybe your manager is sometimes just as nervous or underprepared for this conversation as you.

And they might not have even thought about how much they can offer you.

They might just be going, oh, it's just an annual review.

We'll just proceed.

Yeah, a lot of these deadlines are self-imposed.

Even in cases where I've heard companies say, oh, we don't have budget.

There was money for the people that really pushed for it.

And especially in larger organizations where you just don't know who's making the decisions always.

Right, right.

Wonderful.

Well, as we wrap up today's conversation, I was wondering if you wanted to share your number one or maybe you've got two.

Sometimes people have two tips for our listeners heading into 2022 when it comes to securing a pay rise and going into salary negotiations.

Wonderful.
