How you prepare for a salary discussion can include getting a sense of salaries in your industry, finding ways to demonstrate your performance, and checking in with the bigger picture; including what economic conditions are like.
Once you’re ready to have the conversation, use these three tips:
Start with the positives about your role and what you’re proud of
Talk about your achievements
Get to the point!
Bonus tip:
Follow up your conversation with an email, thanking your manager and include the points you discussed. If your manager agrees to a pay rise, ensure you ask for this in writing (email is fine), clarify when the raise will be paid from and suggest that you meet in another year to review your progress and salary again.
Preparation is the key to feeling more confident. While asking for a pay rise can be daunting, it’s a great opportunity to highlight the value you bring to your role!
