Show Notes

What’s your negotiation strategy? Successful negotiation requires knowledge and skill. If you’re intimidated when it comes to negotiating a promotion or job offer, and want to feel more confident in your negotiation skills, this episode is for you.

In this episode of The Career Rx we’ll discuss:

  • How negotiation is different for women, and how to advocate for yourself 
  • Step by step negotiation tactics, including the right negotiation mindset
  • Negotiation mistakes and conversations to avoid

Today is a jam packed presentation from Dr. Linda Street, an obstetrician and expert in negotiation, who recently gave a presentation to my “Women Physician in Industry” networking group (and gave me permission to share the recording here on my podcast). 

By the end of this episode you will have strategies to advocate for yourself in a variety of workplace situations. Her negotiation techniques and tips will help you ensure you’re being compensated appropriately.
