Session: Get Promoted, Get Paid: A System for Building Your Case and Negotiating What You're Worth
You don't need another pep talk telling you to "speak up more" while also, somehow, being "less aggressive."
The real issue is women underestimate their performance by 33%, and when we do negotiate, we're 30% more likely to be labeled "aggressive." So we wait and we hope good work speaks for itself. And by the time the promotion conversation or salary review comes around, we've forgotten half of what we accomplished; and the half we remember, we can't quantify!
That's how careers stall and money gets left on the table. Not from lack of talent, not from lack of hard work, not from lack of promotability. From lack of evidence and negotiation strategy at the moment it matters.
This session gives you an actionable three-part system to change that: (1) a capture method for documenting wins as they happen, including the "glue work" that keeps your team running but never shows up on your review, (2) a framework for translating that work into business impact language, and (3) negotiation strategies that present proof rather than make asks...so the conversation shifts from "why should we?" to "how could we not?"
You'll walk out ready to build a case so documented that your next promotion or raise feels less like a request and more like a formality.
