Do You have Any Experience Of Asking For A Pay Rise?
wonderful information
Asking for a raise is not one of my favorite things to do. I like working for myself so I can work harder and give myself a raise!
I wish I had someone to ask for a pay rise. Soon, I hope. This solid information will certainly help when the time comes!
I know someone who could use this advice right now. Whew, it's hard to ask for a raise and this is very helpful information!
Interesting topic and will surely help so many people. It is so tough for people to stand up for themselves.
Paul, this is such good solid information, especially in this poor economy. It's hard to ask for a raise, and it is vital to present the request with pertinent facts. Many will benefit from this page, I am sure!
Tomorrow we will know more about who will be asking for a raise, Pep Guardiola or Sir Alex Ferguson?
Very sound advice, Paul, for those asking for a raise. I can't recall having asked for a raise. However, I did decide on one occasion that I wanted to work for another public sector organization. So I visited the Boss and said if you let me do some organizational reviews, I'll design an action learning program for you (something I knew he wanted). We sealed the deal then and there and I spent a year with him - but I had to design the training program first before I got to do an organizational review. So, keeping in mind the needs of the Boss and showing how you match those needs, is a good basis for negotiating a pay rise. (BTW Paul - I love how you have tailored the title of the comment module to your keywords!).
