Expanding on my publish last week regarding the Art of Negotiation,Windows 7 Product Key, I wanted to add a couple of more ideas . . . While I don’t have any facts to prove it,Windows 7 Ultimate Key, my own hypothesis is that certain groups of people negotiate their offers much more often than others. Some of this might be predictable. (For example, I am sure that the recruiters in the Sales group have developed some strong negotiation skills). But I am also willing to say there is another broad group of people who negotiate their offers less often than their counterparts: Women We have all heard the statistics about women being paid less than men for the same jobs. We have also heard the common hypotheses on why. But when I hear the statistics about women’s salaries,Windows 7 Activation, I always pause to wonder if they knew their market value and were able to negotiate their initial offer effectively on their own behalf. From my experience,Microsoft Office 2010, when women do choose to negotiate their offers they do it differently than men. Women often they talk about being “disappointed;" men say they are “insulted”. Women often “ask” for extra money; men instead “decline” the offer. I should pause here to say that I don’t advise women to negotiate salaries as men often do, as I find the “I am insulted” tactic equally ineffective. I do however want to raise the issue of a gender difference, and point both men and women back to my previous posting on effective negotiation skills regardless of gender. In a market where women are sought after (especially technical women),Office 2007 Professional, I encourage any woman to know her market worth and make sure she gets it in her pay check. Jenna
