Tell us 50 00:02:21,800 --> 00:02:25,239 Speaker 2: about the first time you ever negotiated, and I already 51 00:02:25,280 --> 00:02:27,800 Speaker 2: can tell by how red you are getting. I want 52 00:02:27,800 --> 00:02:31,560 Speaker 2: to know maybe some key takeaways, some learnings, some mistakes. 53 00:02:31,120 --> 00:02:32,320 Speaker 3: Made great questions. 54 00:02:32,440 --> 00:02:36,240 Speaker 4: So yes, when I first negotiated, it was at LinkedIn 55 00:02:36,520 --> 00:02:41,280 Speaker 4: or spoiler failed to negotiate, I should say, But I 56 00:02:41,320 --> 00:02:44,040 Speaker 4: was a contractor and I went full time. So I 57 00:02:44,080 --> 00:02:48,800 Speaker 4: went through the recruitment process and had that conversation just 58 00:02:48,800 --> 00:02:51,560 Speaker 4: two disclaimers, which I know, like people don't like disclaimers, 59 00:02:51,600 --> 00:02:55,080 Speaker 4: but being a journalist in tech is pretty confusing. I 60 00:02:55,280 --> 00:02:57,440 Speaker 4: had no idea how much I could be making in 61 00:02:57,480 --> 00:03:01,480 Speaker 4: the tech industry. I knew around what I could be 62 00:03:01,600 --> 00:03:04,560 Speaker 4: ernie if I joined a traditional media company. And I 63 00:03:04,600 --> 00:03:08,160 Speaker 4: also was facing a lot of imposter syndrome, still do. 64 00:03:08,400 --> 00:03:10,239 Speaker 4: But I was like, oh my god, how am my 65 00:03:10,320 --> 00:03:12,400 Speaker 4: landing a tech job as a new grad. 66 00:03:12,560 --> 00:03:13,200 Speaker 3: That's crazy? 67 00:03:13,240 --> 00:03:15,360 Speaker 4: And I wanted to go full time so badly that 68 00:03:15,480 --> 00:03:19,120 Speaker 4: I was willing to take basically whatever. So that was 69 00:03:19,120 --> 00:03:22,880 Speaker 4: one and then two coming from that contract. I didn't know, 70 00:03:23,600 --> 00:03:26,440 Speaker 4: you know, how much that will look annually guess what. 71 00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:28,480 Speaker 4: I totally could have did a little girl math and 72 00:03:28,520 --> 00:03:32,079 Speaker 4: figured that out, but I didn't. So mistake number one 73 00:03:32,120 --> 00:03:34,400 Speaker 4: is that I went in with no research whatsoever. 74 00:03:34,639 --> 00:03:35,080 Speaker 1: Yikes. 75 00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:36,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, big yikes. 76 00:03:36,120 --> 00:03:40,480 Speaker 4: And so I remember that conversation with the recruiter and 77 00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:43,120 Speaker 4: I went in with like a very friendly vibe. I 78 00:03:43,240 --> 00:03:45,800 Speaker 4: was friendly with him right because I had worked here 79 00:03:46,040 --> 00:03:47,920 Speaker 4: and he had my best interest at heart. But the 80 00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:51,240 Speaker 4: truth is recruiters work for employers, so they're going to 81 00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:54,480 Speaker 4: offer you whatever that salary range is for the role. 82 00:03:55,240 --> 00:03:58,240 Speaker 4: So I went in with that mindset and he asked 83 00:03:58,280 --> 00:04:03,160 Speaker 4: me my salary expectations, dreadic question, and I was like, hm, 84 00:04:03,160 --> 00:04:07,440 Speaker 4: great question. I don't really know, but for context, if 85 00:04:07,440 --> 00:04:12,640 Speaker 4: it helps you, here's how much I'm earning. So helping 86 00:04:12,960 --> 00:04:16,800 Speaker 4: him hurting myself. Literally laid all my cards out on 87 00:04:16,880 --> 00:04:21,320 Speaker 4: the table and he was like okay, so Annie Lee 88 00:04:21,320 --> 00:04:22,920 Speaker 4: it was probably like X y Z like quick math. 89 00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:23,840 Speaker 3: I was like, whoa crazy? 90 00:04:24,240 --> 00:04:27,719 Speaker 4: And then he shared the salary range for the role 91 00:04:27,839 --> 00:04:31,360 Speaker 4: and I was like that's great, great, that's it. So 92 00:04:31,680 --> 00:04:33,560 Speaker 4: I went home called my mom. I was like Mom, 93 00:04:33,640 --> 00:04:36,360 Speaker 4: like it's all happening, it's looking good. She's like Okay, 94 00:04:36,360 --> 00:04:38,320 Speaker 4: what do they say about pay? I told her the range. 95 00:04:38,320 --> 00:04:39,840 Speaker 4: She's like, well, what'd you say? And I was like, oh, 96 00:04:39,880 --> 00:04:41,880 Speaker 4: I just said that would be great. She's like, Jonny, 97 00:04:41,880 --> 00:04:44,240 Speaker 4: you didn't say like the higher end or anything. 98 00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:45,440 Speaker 3: I was like no. 99 00:04:46,160 --> 00:04:49,839 Speaker 4: So with guidance from my mom, I emailed and was like, hey, 100 00:04:49,920 --> 00:04:51,800 Speaker 4: would be great if it could be on the higher end. 101 00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:55,080 Speaker 4: All in all, it ended up being on you know, 102 00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:57,680 Speaker 4: it was higher than I had anticipated the offer and 103 00:04:57,720 --> 00:05:03,080 Speaker 4: I signed immediately, which is another mistake. And I learned 104 00:05:03,200 --> 00:05:06,200 Speaker 4: since then that some of my colleagues did negotiate, whether 105 00:05:06,240 --> 00:05:08,560 Speaker 4: it came to like the stock award or whatever it was. 106 00:05:09,320 --> 00:05:12,119 Speaker 4: I just was ready to sign eagerly. And the truth 107 00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:15,360 Speaker 4: is I was coming in with internship experience at LinkedIn 108 00:05:15,560 --> 00:05:19,040 Speaker 4: plus contract experience, and I didn't really. 109 00:05:18,920 --> 00:05:19,640 Speaker 3: Account for that. 110 00:05:19,960 --> 00:05:20,200 Speaker 5: Yeah. 111 00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:22,039 Speaker 4: I mean, I'm sure the company did because I know 112 00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:24,520 Speaker 4: they have my best interest because I had worked here, 113 00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:27,120 Speaker 4: But I totally just yeah, I love that. 114 00:05:27,279 --> 00:05:27,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, sure, No. 115 00:05:28,120 --> 00:05:30,760 Speaker 2: I mean, honestly, your story probably resonates with a lot 116 00:05:30,760 --> 00:05:33,040 Speaker 2: of people because I'm sure a lot of people A 117 00:05:33,480 --> 00:05:36,520 Speaker 2: don't negotiate because it's scary, or be don't even know 118 00:05:36,600 --> 00:05:40,160 Speaker 2: how to properly research what they should be negotiating. So, 119 00:05:40,520 --> 00:05:42,680 Speaker 2: I mean the fact that you backtrack and was like, hey, 120 00:05:42,760 --> 00:05:45,560 Speaker 2: big heck, can we actually put a little bit more 121 00:05:45,600 --> 00:05:47,479 Speaker 2: money on the top. The fact that you even did 122 00:05:47,520 --> 00:05:51,880 Speaker 2: that was super. You know Ballsy's I'm sure. 123 00:05:53,600 --> 00:05:54,159 Speaker 4: They do it. 124 00:05:55,360 --> 00:05:57,520 Speaker 1: I can literally see Gianna's mother just being. 125 00:05:57,320 --> 00:05:58,839 Speaker 3: In the shadows my Italian mind. 126 00:05:59,200 --> 00:06:02,039 Speaker 2: I love, But I honestly, again, I think that you know, 127 00:06:02,080 --> 00:06:04,320 Speaker 2: you've learned a lot, and obviously you know, I think 128 00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:06,360 Speaker 2: mistakes are meant to be made so that you don't 129 00:06:06,360 --> 00:06:06,960 Speaker 2: make them again. 130 00:06:07,120 --> 00:06:08,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, you. 131 00:06:07,920 --> 00:06:10,359 Speaker 4: Know, I mentioned the going contract a full time was 132 00:06:10,800 --> 00:06:14,039 Speaker 4: kind of obscure. I'm wondering for you, when you like 133 00:06:14,200 --> 00:06:17,800 Speaker 4: being an entrepreneur, how did you approach and how do 134 00:06:17,839 --> 00:06:20,640 Speaker 4: you approach negotiating because I'm sure that is even more 135 00:06:20,960 --> 00:06:22,000 Speaker 4: you know, obscure. 136 00:06:22,160 --> 00:06:25,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's really terrifying. Again, like I said earlier, I 137 00:06:25,520 --> 00:06:29,039 Speaker 2: literally want to throw up. Even after a decade plus 138 00:06:29,040 --> 00:06:32,120 Speaker 2: of working in the creator economy, entertainment industry, I still 139 00:06:32,160 --> 00:06:36,080 Speaker 2: get very scared. But h yeah, when I first graduated, 140 00:06:36,120 --> 00:06:41,920 Speaker 2: I was working like very hourly gigs. I was I mean, bartending, waitressing, 141 00:06:42,160 --> 00:06:45,680 Speaker 2: I was transcribing like government docs for a while I 142 00:06:45,720 --> 00:06:47,600 Speaker 2: was a celebrity assistant for a while. 143 00:06:47,720 --> 00:06:49,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, girl, we need to get into that. 144 00:06:49,480 --> 00:06:52,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, we can definitely do that over mimosas. But like 145 00:06:52,520 --> 00:06:54,000 Speaker 2: I was doing a lot of jobs where like there 146 00:06:54,040 --> 00:06:57,360 Speaker 2: was a set rate, set fee. Even in acting, you 147 00:06:57,400 --> 00:06:59,360 Speaker 2: go on set, there is a set fee, like. 148 00:06:59,360 --> 00:07:02,160 Speaker 4: For they say it said or did you assume. 149 00:07:01,839 --> 00:07:04,480 Speaker 2: There was Like there was no opportunity. No one ever 150 00:07:04,520 --> 00:07:07,200 Speaker 2: brought up Hey, this is like navigable, Like this is 151 00:07:07,240 --> 00:07:10,480 Speaker 2: a number, like just one number that you have, and 152 00:07:10,520 --> 00:07:13,960 Speaker 2: like that was it. And it was interesting because I'll 153 00:07:13,960 --> 00:07:15,760 Speaker 2: never forget. I was freelancing for a job, so it 154 00:07:15,800 --> 00:07:17,960 Speaker 2: was like an hourly right, and then I got an 155 00:07:17,960 --> 00:07:20,680 Speaker 2: opportunity to work in my quote unquote first tech job. 156 00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:23,200 Speaker 2: So I'm getting ready, like I know that the gig 157 00:07:23,240 --> 00:07:25,560 Speaker 2: is mine.

I said nothing, which 175 00:08:12,680 --> 00:08:15,080 Speaker 2: actually was a blessing because I was about to be like, 176 00:08:15,120 --> 00:08:17,760 Speaker 2: this is how much I want. She instead said, well, 177 00:08:17,760 --> 00:08:21,960 Speaker 2: we're thinking about blah to blah. Why was the minimum 178 00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:26,400 Speaker 2: for that range thirty thousand dollars more than what I 179 00:08:26,480 --> 00:08:29,320 Speaker 2: was about to ask for? Oh my gosh, I said, 180 00:08:29,360 --> 00:08:30,800 Speaker 2: you know what, there is a savior. 181 00:08:30,960 --> 00:08:31,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, there is. 182 00:08:31,720 --> 00:08:37,320 Speaker 1: Something about you. Sothing did I said, good God, thank you? 183 00:08:37,440 --> 00:08:39,480 Speaker 2: And so I was like okay, And then you know, 184 00:08:39,520 --> 00:08:41,640 Speaker 2: now I'm trying to compose myself and I'm. 185 00:08:41,440 --> 00:08:43,520 Speaker 3: Like, I think your voice is a crackee. 186 00:08:43,679 --> 00:08:43,959 Speaker 5: Literally. 187 00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:44,839 Speaker 4: I was like, I think we. 188 00:08:44,800 --> 00:08:46,960 Speaker 1: Could do something. I think this could work, and I 189 00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:49,400 Speaker 1: was like, yeah, this fine child. She kept going. 190 00:08:49,480 --> 00:08:51,320 Speaker 2: She went on and talked about benefits that I didn't 191 00:08:51,360 --> 00:08:52,480 Speaker 2: hear nothing that woman said. 192 00:08:52,559 --> 00:08:55,240 Speaker 1: At that point, I'm texting my mama. I'm texting my man. 193 00:08:55,320 --> 00:08:57,840 Speaker 1: I'm like, it's lit in this petty. We're about to 194 00:08:57,880 --> 00:08:58,360 Speaker 1: be up. 195 00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:02,800 Speaker 2: But this is why that story resonates. I got into 196 00:09:02,880 --> 00:09:05,599 Speaker 2: the job six months in. I'm working with a coworker, 197 00:09:05,960 --> 00:09:09,480 Speaker 2: you know, really cool, been there a couple of years longer. 198 00:09:10,080 --> 00:09:13,600 Speaker 2: We're talking, and this is back when talking about money 199 00:09:13,640 --> 00:09:16,640 Speaker 2: was still very taboo, and I don't know how it 200 00:09:16,679 --> 00:09:19,360 Speaker 2: came out, but he put out how much he was making, 201 00:09:19,960 --> 00:09:23,840 Speaker 2: and he he was making twenty thousand dollars more than 202 00:09:23,880 --> 00:09:27,439 Speaker 2: I was. And in that moment, my heart sank because 203 00:09:27,480 --> 00:09:31,480 Speaker 2: I said, you were so freaking giddy that you didn't 204 00:09:31,520 --> 00:09:34,080 Speaker 2: even ask if there was more for you, and you 205 00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:37,240 Speaker 2: still left money out on the table. That is so 206 00:09:37,480 --> 00:09:40,880 Speaker 2: seared in my memory that any job I took after that, 207 00:09:40,920 --> 00:09:42,960 Speaker 2: I negotiate it. In fact, it actually helped me because 208 00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:45,120 Speaker 2: then as a creator, I started negotiating with brands all 209 00:09:45,160 --> 00:09:47,520 Speaker 2: the time. You hop in my DMS, you hop in 210 00:09:47,559 --> 00:09:49,800 Speaker 2: my emails, and you like, can you do these deliverables 211 00:09:49,840 --> 00:09:53,560 Speaker 2: for this, where's the money? And then after that like no, no, no. 212 00:09:53,240 --> 00:09:53,640 Speaker 5: No, no no. 213 00:09:53,920 --> 00:09:54,960 Speaker 3: First question is this paid? 214 00:09:55,120 --> 00:09:57,079 Speaker 1: The first question is it paid? Second of all is 215 00:09:57,120 --> 00:09:57,720 Speaker 1: it paid? Well? 216 00:09:58,600 --> 00:10:00,199 Speaker 2: You will always negotiate, and I think one of the 217 00:10:00,240 --> 00:10:03,360 Speaker 2: biggest things I will say, I have never lost a 218 00:10:03,480 --> 00:10:05,680 Speaker 2: bag negotiating period. 219 00:10:05,840 --> 00:10:06,880 Speaker 3: And that's the biggest fear. 220 00:10:07,040 --> 00:10:09,000 Speaker 2: You think that they're gonna rescind the off one hundred 221 00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:11,640 Speaker 2: percent if you're that girl, they're not gonna take it away. 222 00:10:11,720 --> 00:10:16,080 Speaker 4: Yeah, unless you're asking some crazy astronomical number. 223 00:10:18,040 --> 00:10:20,760 Speaker 2: Jillion dollars, honest thing that probably max is out one 224 00:10:20,800 --> 00:10:23,280 Speaker 2: hundred k. Yeah, maybe so, because then they're like this 225 00:10:23,320 --> 00:10:24,640 Speaker 2: person might be a little off. 226 00:10:24,679 --> 00:10:25,800 Speaker 1: We don't need that. 227 00:10:26,280 --> 00:10:28,200 Speaker 2: But like, for real, for real, I have never lost 228 00:10:28,200 --> 00:10:31,280 Speaker 2: an opportunity. I have never lost a bag for simply 229 00:10:31,440 --> 00:10:33,439 Speaker 2: asking for what I want. And in fact, I have 230 00:10:33,559 --> 00:10:35,800 Speaker 2: held myself up to the standard that if you can't 231 00:10:35,840 --> 00:10:38,200 Speaker 2: meet me at least where I need to be, maybe 232 00:10:38,280 --> 00:10:40,640 Speaker 2: this isn't a line. I have walked away from brand 233 00:10:40,679 --> 00:10:43,320 Speaker 2: deals and guess what, those brands circled the block years later, 234 00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:45,160 Speaker 2: and now all of a sudden, that rate that you 235 00:10:45,240 --> 00:10:47,280 Speaker 2: thought was too much, baby i'mna add. 236 00:10:47,160 --> 00:10:47,880 Speaker 1: Some tax on it. 237 00:10:47,960 --> 00:10:51,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, i'mna add it again, taxes three times, so I'm 238 00:10:51,880 --> 00:10:54,640 Speaker 2: gonna add some extra tax upon it, and then the jamaa. 239 00:10:54,320 --> 00:10:55,920 Speaker 3: Like, by the way, inflation's hire now. 240 00:10:55,760 --> 00:10:56,000 Speaker 5: So. 241 00:10:57,520 --> 00:11:00,360 Speaker 2: The rate has gone up. Okay, seriously, yesterday this price 242 00:11:00,440 --> 00:11:02,280 Speaker 2: is not today's price. And I say that because I 243 00:11:02,320 --> 00:11:05,000 Speaker 2: think if we take the ick out of negotiating, you 244 00:11:05,120 --> 00:11:07,720 Speaker 2: got to realize you are that person. You gotta realize 245 00:11:07,720 --> 00:11:09,439 Speaker 2: you got to bring those receipts, but you also got 246 00:11:09,440 --> 00:11:12,160 Speaker 2: to realize that like you are the prize you are. 247 00:11:12,280 --> 00:11:13,959 Speaker 3: But you're like firing me up. I'm like ready to 248 00:11:14,040 --> 00:11:15,880 Speaker 3: negotiat you right now. 249 00:11:16,240 --> 00:11:19,600 Speaker 2: No, seriously, I negotiate everything, and the best practice that 250 00:11:19,679 --> 00:11:22,400 Speaker 2: I have done is start with the small stuff. I 251 00:11:22,480 --> 00:11:25,280 Speaker 2: negotiate with my husband what we're gonna eat tonight. So true, 252 00:11:25,679 --> 00:11:27,520 Speaker 2: because you know what it is. It's not even just 253 00:11:27,600 --> 00:11:30,480 Speaker 2: the money. I think that people are scared to negotiate 254 00:11:30,480 --> 00:11:33,959 Speaker 2: because sometimes I think subconsciously, you don't think you. 255 00:11:33,960 --> 00:11:35,360 Speaker 1: Deserve what you're about to ask for. 256 00:11:35,960 --> 00:11:39,280 Speaker 2: So now, if Babe wants Italian but I want Chinese, 257 00:11:39,400 --> 00:11:42,120 Speaker 2: I'm gonna negotiate. Well, maybe if we get Chinese, I'll 258 00:11:42,120 --> 00:11:45,480 Speaker 2: do the dishes or and it's so as silly as 259 00:11:45,480 --> 00:11:49,319 Speaker 2: that sounds, you being able to say this is wonderful, 260 00:11:49,400 --> 00:11:53,079 Speaker 2: but also blank gets you into the practice, and then 261 00:11:53,280 --> 00:11:56,840 Speaker 2: somehow it starts to trickle into all of these other aspects. 262 00:11:56,360 --> 00:11:56,920 Speaker 1: Of your life. 263 00:11:56,920 --> 00:11:59,240 Speaker 4: And you know what I love about that is it's 264 00:11:59,240 --> 00:12:01,040 Speaker 4: a compromise where I feel like a lot of people 265 00:12:01,080 --> 00:12:03,880 Speaker 4: approach negotiations feeling like it's either they win or I win. 266 00:12:04,120 --> 00:12:06,040 Speaker 3: It's not a win lose situation. 267 00:12:06,280 --> 00:12:08,440 Speaker 4: It really is a win win situation, and it's all 268 00:12:08,480 --> 00:12:09,679 Speaker 4: about finding that compromise. 269 00:12:09,800 --> 00:12:12,559 Speaker 2: Yeah, And the last thing I'll say is that sometimes 270 00:12:12,600 --> 00:12:14,360 Speaker 2: I think we like, oh my gosh, I'm just so 271 00:12:14,480 --> 00:12:17,520 Speaker 2: happy about the name. I'm so happy about the job. Baby, 272 00:12:18,000 --> 00:12:20,320 Speaker 2: this is an exchange of goods and services. Like let's 273 00:12:20,400 --> 00:12:22,800 Speaker 2: keep it a stack. Like, yeah, you can love your job, 274 00:12:22,840 --> 00:12:24,480 Speaker 2: and I want you to find fulfillment in it. But 275 00:12:24,600 --> 00:12:28,840 Speaker 2: also remember you are providing something to them. They have 276 00:12:29,000 --> 00:12:31,640 Speaker 2: something to lose. So go up in there, put your 277 00:12:31,640 --> 00:12:35,080 Speaker 2: big girl, big boy panties on. Okay, practice in the mirror, 278 00:12:35,160 --> 00:12:37,320 Speaker 2: you know, say candy man three times, whatever you gotta 279 00:12:37,360 --> 00:12:39,559 Speaker 2: do to get in the mode. Because baby, when it's 280 00:12:39,600 --> 00:12:40,600 Speaker 2: time to go it's time to go. 281 00:12:40,679 --> 00:12:43,000 Speaker 1: Oh, I'm routed up. Gee, what are we gonna he said? 282 00:12:43,000 --> 00:12:43,880 Speaker 3: What she said. 283 00:12:47,080 --> 00:12:50,480 Speaker 2: After the break, we're talking with negotiation expert more to 284 00:12:50,559 --> 00:12:53,680 Speaker 2: Harry Poor, who is gonna share why we all, yes, 285 00:12:53,840 --> 00:13:06,640 Speaker 2: including you, have the power to negotiate.

Thank you. 298 00:13:41,640 --> 00:13:44,520 Speaker 4: Yay. We're so excited for the convo and we're going 299 00:13:44,559 --> 00:13:47,440 Speaker 4: to kick it off with our segment called Dear Work Bestie, 300 00:13:47,480 --> 00:13:51,199 Speaker 4: which is where we address listener questions and one we 301 00:13:51,280 --> 00:13:53,920 Speaker 4: got this week is from Kristen in California. 302 00:13:54,160 --> 00:13:55,000 Speaker 3: Let's take a listen. 303 00:13:56,320 --> 00:13:59,120 Speaker 6: I just graduated college and I'm about to start looking 304 00:13:59,120 --> 00:14:02,520 Speaker 6: for my first four time job. I've done some internships, 305 00:14:02,520 --> 00:14:04,000 Speaker 6: but I feel like I don't have the right to 306 00:14:04,040 --> 00:14:07,120 Speaker 6: negotiate because this is kind of my first real job. 307 00:14:07,559 --> 00:14:10,000 Speaker 6: Where would I even start? What should I be thinking 308 00:14:10,040 --> 00:14:12,160 Speaker 6: about before talking to my future manager? 309 00:14:13,200 --> 00:14:15,400 Speaker 2: So Maria, I'll kick us off because I think we 310 00:14:15,559 --> 00:14:18,640 Speaker 2: all have been in Kristen's spot before. I think when 311 00:14:18,840 --> 00:14:20,720 Speaker 2: she said the whole I don't have the right to 312 00:14:20,760 --> 00:14:23,400 Speaker 2: negotiate that, my eye twitched a little bit because I 313 00:14:23,440 --> 00:14:24,440 Speaker 2: was like, negotiate. 314 00:14:25,280 --> 00:14:26,520 Speaker 1: So let's ask a. 315 00:14:26,480 --> 00:14:31,120 Speaker 2: Hesitation around negotiating is usually understanding what's even on the 316 00:14:31,160 --> 00:14:34,120 Speaker 2: table to begin with. What's your advice for people like 317 00:14:34,200 --> 00:14:37,360 Speaker 2: Kristen who are unsure what to even ask for in 318 00:14:37,360 --> 00:14:38,000 Speaker 2: the first place. 319 00:14:39,000 --> 00:14:42,520 Speaker 5: Well, part of negotiations is just having a conversation, right, 320 00:14:42,640 --> 00:14:46,320 Speaker 5: and everybody has the right to have a conversation. So 321 00:14:46,360 --> 00:14:48,800 Speaker 5: a lot of people think just because it's a negotiations, 322 00:14:48,840 --> 00:14:50,600 Speaker 5: that means you have to jump into this sort of 323 00:14:50,600 --> 00:14:53,800 Speaker 5: transaction all back and forth. That's not it at all. 324 00:14:53,800 --> 00:14:56,359 Speaker 5: If you start thinking about negotiations as just a conversation, 325 00:14:56,440 --> 00:14:58,520 Speaker 5: then I think it sort of eases us a little bit. 326 00:14:59,240 --> 00:15:01,120 Speaker 5: It doesn't have to be a win lose thing, it 327 00:15:01,160 --> 00:15:02,520 Speaker 5: doesn't have to be a transaction. 328 00:15:02,640 --> 00:15:03,760 Speaker 3: In my mind, I. 329 00:15:03,720 --> 00:15:06,560 Speaker 5: Think about it as problem solving. I think about it 330 00:15:06,600 --> 00:15:09,040 Speaker 5: as two people getting to know one another, and that 331 00:15:09,160 --> 00:15:11,960 Speaker 5: really sort of takes away some of that tension. The 332 00:15:12,040 --> 00:15:15,680 Speaker 5: other is that I heard I haven't really had a job. 333 00:15:15,800 --> 00:15:17,920 Speaker 5: I haven't think this is really the first sort of 334 00:15:18,040 --> 00:15:20,160 Speaker 5: job that I'm going to have. That's not true at all. 335 00:15:20,640 --> 00:15:24,080 Speaker 5: I think, especially a lot of college students have so 336 00:15:24,200 --> 00:15:27,520 Speaker 5: much experience doing so many different things, whether they're in clubs, 337 00:15:28,080 --> 00:15:31,560 Speaker 5: whether they have part time jobs, whether they've had experience 338 00:15:31,600 --> 00:15:33,720 Speaker 5: before even going into college. If they sit down and 339 00:15:33,760 --> 00:15:37,000 Speaker 5: create sort of an inventory of all the different experiences 340 00:15:37,080 --> 00:15:40,680 Speaker 5: leadership type experiences that they've had, go back and reorient 341 00:15:40,760 --> 00:15:44,120 Speaker 5: yourself right, and then think about the negotiations as an 342 00:15:44,120 --> 00:15:46,120 Speaker 5: opportunity to tell your story. 343 00:15:47,240 --> 00:15:49,960 Speaker 4: I definitely can relate to Kristin because when I got 344 00:15:49,960 --> 00:15:52,200 Speaker 4: my first job offer, I was like, just I'm so 345 00:15:52,240 --> 00:15:54,200 Speaker 4: grateful to have this. I'm not going to try to 346 00:15:54,280 --> 00:15:55,880 Speaker 4: rock the boat in any way. And a lot of 347 00:15:56,120 --> 00:15:59,840 Speaker 4: younger people do fear losing their offer if they negotiate, 348 00:16:00,040 --> 00:16:02,880 Speaker 4: but I'm wondering, how do you get into the right mindset? 349 00:16:03,000 --> 00:16:05,720 Speaker 4: So it's not who am I to negotiate, but this 350 00:16:05,840 --> 00:16:07,360 Speaker 4: idea that I do have the right. 351 00:16:08,280 --> 00:16:11,840 Speaker 5: When we don't feel confident, we show that we're not confident. 352 00:16:12,600 --> 00:16:15,320 Speaker 5: And I think that's a really big deal. So I 353 00:16:15,360 --> 00:16:17,960 Speaker 5: think if you have mentors, if you have people that 354 00:16:18,000 --> 00:16:20,800 Speaker 5: you can rehearse in front of, it's having somebody there 355 00:16:20,840 --> 00:16:23,360 Speaker 5: that maybe you feel comfortable with, that's been supporting you 356 00:16:23,480 --> 00:16:25,200 Speaker 5: and having them just there. It's not like they walk 357 00:16:25,280 --> 00:16:28,040 Speaker 5: right into the interview with you, but just even sort 358 00:16:28,080 --> 00:16:32,200 Speaker 5: of having somebody that's sort of helping you overcome some 359 00:16:32,320 --> 00:16:35,400 Speaker 5: of those like the mind games that we play with ourselves. Right, 360 00:16:35,480 --> 00:16:40,160 Speaker 5: So like, never be shy about saying I'm struggling with 361 00:16:40,480 --> 00:16:44,440 Speaker 5: telling my own narrative. Can you help me? That loved 362 00:16:44,480 --> 00:16:46,880 Speaker 5: one that the people you surround yourself with, their job 363 00:16:46,920 --> 00:16:48,560 Speaker 5: at that point is like to hold up the mirror 364 00:16:48,600 --> 00:16:50,880 Speaker 5: to you and to look at yourself and know that 365 00:16:50,920 --> 00:16:53,840 Speaker 5: you deserve to be there, that you've accomplished so much 366 00:16:53,880 --> 00:16:56,920 Speaker 5: in your life to find a way to talk about 367 00:16:56,960 --> 00:17:02,800 Speaker 5: it with both humility and confidence, right and really being 368 00:17:03,000 --> 00:17:05,919 Speaker 5: able to understand that you absolutely have a place at 369 00:17:05,960 --> 00:17:08,159 Speaker 5: that table. You're there for a reason. They didn't just 370 00:17:08,359 --> 00:17:11,480 Speaker 5: randomly select somebody. You're already there, So how are you 371 00:17:11,520 --> 00:17:12,640 Speaker 5: going to sell yourself now? 372 00:17:13,680 --> 00:17:13,920 Speaker 1: Marey. 373 00:17:14,080 --> 00:17:16,640 Speaker 2: I love all of that, and you're absolutely right, you 374 00:17:16,680 --> 00:17:19,960 Speaker 2: are there for a reason. But on the research aspect, 375 00:17:20,160 --> 00:17:23,040 Speaker 2: what should people like Kristen be doing before they even 376 00:17:23,240 --> 00:17:24,159 Speaker 2: enter the conversation? 377 00:17:25,240 --> 00:17:30,600 Speaker 5: So prepare, prepare, prepare, Right, Above all, there's no excuses 378 00:17:30,600 --> 00:17:33,120 Speaker 5: anymore not to know certain pieces of information.

And you really at that point 394 00:18:20,320 --> 00:18:23,520 Speaker 5: don't say nope, no, that was it, right. This is 395 00:18:23,560 --> 00:18:26,239 Speaker 5: your opportunity to showcase not only what you don't know, 396 00:18:26,359 --> 00:18:28,760 Speaker 5: but how you want to grow in that role, that 397 00:18:29,440 --> 00:18:32,400 Speaker 5: that you're curious, that you're intellectually curious, that you want 398 00:18:32,400 --> 00:18:34,360 Speaker 5: to know more about it. And by the way, I'm 399 00:18:34,400 --> 00:18:37,359 Speaker 5: so prepared then I know the exactly types of things 400 00:18:37,359 --> 00:18:39,159 Speaker 5: that I still want to learn about this company that 401 00:18:39,200 --> 00:18:41,359 Speaker 5: I didn't know already. M hm. 402 00:18:42,280 --> 00:18:45,160 Speaker 1: And honestly, I love that you started this whole thing 403 00:18:45,280 --> 00:18:48,600 Speaker 1: off by saying that this is just a conversation. 404 00:18:48,800 --> 00:18:51,880 Speaker 2: Guys, Like seriously, you can go in there thinking I'm 405 00:18:51,920 --> 00:18:54,440 Speaker 2: an adult, You're an adult. We are too adult tiving 406 00:18:54,480 --> 00:18:56,840 Speaker 2: this conversation, and it helps take some of that fear 407 00:18:56,880 --> 00:18:59,359 Speaker 2: and honestly some of the pressure off. But more like 408 00:18:59,400 --> 00:19:03,520 Speaker 2: you said, I love that research. Understanding your values, understanding 409 00:19:03,560 --> 00:19:05,679 Speaker 2: where you are and where you want to go, and 410 00:19:05,720 --> 00:19:08,320 Speaker 2: knowing that you have that power is really where we 411 00:19:08,359 --> 00:19:10,800 Speaker 2: all should be thinking about. Like, these are great takeaways. 412 00:19:11,440 --> 00:19:14,480 Speaker 2: So Mari, while we've got you here, I think we 413 00:19:14,520 --> 00:19:17,199 Speaker 2: should put some of these great tips into practice. So 414 00:19:17,440 --> 00:19:20,800 Speaker 2: we're going to read a couple of different negotiation scenarios. 415 00:19:21,400 --> 00:19:23,280 Speaker 2: We want you to let us know what you think 416 00:19:23,280 --> 00:19:26,440 Speaker 2: about how the person presented in those situations responded. 417 00:19:26,960 --> 00:19:27,760 Speaker 1: Did they do well? 418 00:19:27,760 --> 00:19:30,320 Speaker 2: Did they not? What could they improve on? So I'll 419 00:19:30,320 --> 00:19:33,879 Speaker 2: start us off. So situation number one is responding to 420 00:19:34,920 --> 00:19:38,240 Speaker 2: what are your salary expectations? Oh my god, my armpits 421 00:19:38,240 --> 00:19:41,639 Speaker 2: are sweaty already. Okay, here we go. I'm a recent 422 00:19:41,680 --> 00:19:44,720 Speaker 2: grad and in the process of applying for jobs in marketing. 423 00:19:45,000 --> 00:19:47,119 Speaker 2: I have a couple of internships under my belt and 424 00:19:47,160 --> 00:19:51,159 Speaker 2: have held leadership roles in various college organizations related to 425 00:19:51,160 --> 00:19:53,879 Speaker 2: my field of interest. I get an interview for an 426 00:19:54,000 --> 00:19:57,560 Speaker 2: entry level job offering a salary range of fifty to 427 00:19:57,680 --> 00:20:02,040 Speaker 2: sixty thousand dollars based on experience. The company offers health 428 00:20:02,080 --> 00:20:06,480 Speaker 2: benefits and adjacent PTO. The interview goes well, then the 429 00:20:06,520 --> 00:20:10,400 Speaker 2: manager asks me, so, what are your salary expectations? That's 430 00:20:10,440 --> 00:20:15,119 Speaker 2: my manager voice, what are your salary expectations? And I answer, well, 431 00:20:15,440 --> 00:20:18,200 Speaker 2: I understand this is my first job out of college, 432 00:20:18,280 --> 00:20:20,920 Speaker 2: so I might not have as much experience as other 433 00:20:21,040 --> 00:20:24,199 Speaker 2: candidates you're considering. With that in mind, I would like 434 00:20:24,280 --> 00:20:26,959 Speaker 2: my starting salary to be in the fifty to fifty 435 00:20:26,960 --> 00:20:32,399 Speaker 2: five thousand dollars range. Mariy woof. Okay, what did this 436 00:20:32,480 --> 00:20:36,600 Speaker 2: person do well? And what do you think they can improve? 437 00:20:37,680 --> 00:20:43,719 Speaker 5: Improve everything? So the first is I know that's so terrible. 438 00:20:44,400 --> 00:20:46,439 Speaker 5: The part that got me was that I may not 439 00:20:46,560 --> 00:20:50,760 Speaker 5: be as experienced as everybody else that you're interviewing. First 440 00:20:50,800 --> 00:20:53,040 Speaker 5: of all, if you're not, they already know that, right, 441 00:20:53,080 --> 00:20:55,360 Speaker 5: So like you don't have to be like, Hi, I'm 442 00:20:55,400 --> 00:20:58,920 Speaker 5: not as good as everybody else. Now, I think if 443 00:20:58,960 --> 00:21:01,840 Speaker 5: you are going to say that and say like professional 444 00:21:01,840 --> 00:21:07,360 Speaker 5: experience maybe or you know, experience in this particular position 445 00:21:07,440 --> 00:21:10,520 Speaker 5: that you're getting, you can say that, but immediately it 446 00:21:10,560 --> 00:21:13,560 Speaker 5: has to be followed up with but I've been in 447 00:21:13,640 --> 00:21:16,280 Speaker 5: leadership roles in Da da Da Da Da. I've had 448 00:21:16,280 --> 00:21:19,359 Speaker 5: this type of experience with transferable skills and. 449 00:21:19,440 --> 00:21:20,000 Speaker 3: X, Y and Z. 450 00:21:20,920 --> 00:21:23,200 Speaker 5: So you can't just put that out there and let 451 00:21:23,240 --> 00:21:25,040 Speaker 5: it sort of drop like a lead balloon. 452 00:21:25,240 --> 00:21:25,440 Speaker 2: Right. 453 00:21:25,480 --> 00:21:28,560 Speaker 5: You have to have a narrative that you know both 454 00:21:28,640 --> 00:21:34,720 Speaker 5: says I recognize that X, but let me create a 455 00:21:34,760 --> 00:21:37,840 Speaker 5: through line so you can understand why I'm as good 456 00:21:37,840 --> 00:21:41,280 Speaker 5: as those other candidates. Potentially, if not maybe have more 457 00:21:41,280 --> 00:21:45,080 Speaker 5: interesting experience, because you need that in order to say 458 00:21:46,640 --> 00:21:50,040 Speaker 5: I want a higher salary than the bare minimum salary, right, 459 00:21:50,080 --> 00:21:52,280 Speaker 5: you sort of have to create sort that first narrative 460 00:21:52,280 --> 00:21:53,960 Speaker 5: for it and then follow it out. The other thing 461 00:21:54,080 --> 00:21:57,760 Speaker 5: is that when you talk about ranges like fifty to 462 00:21:57,800 --> 00:22:01,359 Speaker 5: fifty five, people only hear one number. Right. That's the 463 00:22:01,359 --> 00:22:04,080 Speaker 5: thing about a range. They're going to hear the number 464 00:22:04,200 --> 00:22:08,359 Speaker 5: that is most beneficial to them. So understand that. So 465 00:22:08,680 --> 00:22:11,520 Speaker 5: if it is a trick that you want to use, 466 00:22:12,080 --> 00:22:14,920 Speaker 5: always sort of start with even that higher, higher range 467 00:22:15,000 --> 00:22:17,480 Speaker 5: so that the one the lowest number is the one 468 00:22:17,520 --> 00:22:20,000 Speaker 5: that's on the upper end of that. You know. So 469 00:22:20,040 --> 00:22:22,880 Speaker 5: I would say something like fifty eight to fifty five, 470 00:22:22,960 --> 00:22:24,720 Speaker 5: let's say fifty five where you want to land. But 471 00:22:24,760 --> 00:22:27,440 Speaker 5: the minute you say fifty five or fifty to fifty five, 472 00:22:27,880 --> 00:22:29,800 Speaker 5: that recruiter is going to hear one number, and that 473 00:22:29,880 --> 00:22:34,040 Speaker 5: was fifty. So really sort of the psychology of ranges 474 00:22:34,240 --> 00:22:37,760 Speaker 5: really interesting play in a way that is most beneficial 475 00:22:37,760 --> 00:22:38,000 Speaker 5: to you. 476 00:22:39,200 --> 00:22:41,440 Speaker 4: All right, Mariy, I got situation number two for you, 477 00:22:41,600 --> 00:22:45,440 Speaker 4: which is negotiating when you're making a career pivot. I've 478 00:22:45,480 --> 00:22:47,719 Speaker 4: been working in finance for a few years now, and 479 00:22:47,840 --> 00:22:50,040 Speaker 4: I'm ready to look for a new job. I'm looking 480 00:22:50,040 --> 00:22:53,960 Speaker 4: for mid level positions, ideally opportunities that allow room for 481 00:22:54,000 --> 00:22:56,520 Speaker 4: growth and maybe even a chance to move up within 482 00:22:56,560 --> 00:22:59,280 Speaker 4: the company. I get a job offer from a company 483 00:22:59,320 --> 00:23:01,720 Speaker 4: that I've always and I've wanted to work with for 484 00:23:01,760 --> 00:23:04,920 Speaker 4: a long time. Unfortunately, after some back and forth, they're 485 00:23:04,960 --> 00:23:07,119 Speaker 4: only willing to offer me the lower end of the 486 00:23:07,160 --> 00:23:10,199 Speaker 4: position salary range. The salary is lower than what I 487 00:23:10,240 --> 00:23:12,200 Speaker 4: was hoping for, but I'm willing to accept the offer 488 00:23:12,240 --> 00:23:14,399 Speaker 4: because I really want to work at this company. I 489 00:23:14,440 --> 00:23:17,320 Speaker 4: tell them before I consider accepting this offer, I want 490 00:23:17,320 --> 00:23:19,360 Speaker 4: to make sure that there will be opportunities to grow 491 00:23:19,400 --> 00:23:22,919 Speaker 4: in this position, whether that be salary bumps or chances 492 00:23:22,960 --> 00:23:25,399 Speaker 4: to move up in the company. Maybe in six months, 493 00:23:25,440 --> 00:23:27,639 Speaker 4: can we review my performance and see if it warns 494 00:23:27,640 --> 00:23:28,360 Speaker 4: a pay increase? 495 00:23:29,640 --> 00:23:32,440 Speaker 5: What do you think that's a better scenario? 496 00:23:35,640 --> 00:23:36,320 Speaker 3: Didn't give you heart? 497 00:23:36,359 --> 00:23:37,040 Speaker 5: Publications? 498 00:23:37,560 --> 00:23:38,359 Speaker 1: Not as much I was. 499 00:23:38,480 --> 00:23:43,000 Speaker 5: I even found myself smiling at one point. I would 500 00:23:43,040 --> 00:23:47,919 Speaker 5: say a couple of things. Unless you've gone through several 501 00:23:48,000 --> 00:23:50,679 Speaker 5: rounds and that like, we just can't go any higher 502 00:23:50,720 --> 00:23:54,560 Speaker 5: than this. If that is really all they can do, 503 00:23:55,280 --> 00:23:58,720 Speaker 5: then I really love this notion of okay, And I 504 00:23:58,720 --> 00:24:02,200 Speaker 5: should say that actually for all of these interviews, especially 505 00:24:02,200 --> 00:24:04,400 Speaker 5: if you're going to get into certain negotiating any part 506 00:24:04,440 --> 00:24:08,160 Speaker 5: of the compensation package, telling the company you really want 507 00:24:08,160 --> 00:24:14,320 Speaker 5: to be there is great, right, because you'd never want 508 00:24:14,600 --> 00:24:16,240 Speaker 5: a lot of my students say, well, I'm waiting for 509 00:24:16,320 --> 00:24:18,280 Speaker 5: job offers from a couple of these companies, Should I 510 00:24:18,280 --> 00:24:20,000 Speaker 5: tell them? And I said no, don't put companies up 511 00:24:20,040 --> 00:24:23,200 Speaker 5: against each other, right, You'd never want anyone to feel 512 00:24:23,240 --> 00:24:26,480 Speaker 5: like they're your second or third option, right, So telling 513 00:24:26,480 --> 00:24:28,040 Speaker 5: them you want to be there, telling them this is 514 00:24:28,080 --> 00:24:31,800 Speaker 5: the company where you want to be is point one. 515 00:24:31,880 --> 00:24:32,040 Speaker 6: Right. 516 00:24:32,040 --> 00:24:35,040 Speaker 5: That was really good. And the other thing is that 517 00:24:36,040 --> 00:24:39,040 Speaker 5: this notion of okay, I understand that you all can't 518 00:24:39,040 --> 00:24:42,399 Speaker 5: do anymore right now, and I'm willing to work with 519 00:24:42,440 --> 00:24:45,119 Speaker 5: you because this is where I want to be. However, 520 00:24:46,200 --> 00:24:48,680 Speaker 5: can we come up with a creative way that maybe 521 00:24:48,760 --> 00:24:54,520 Speaker 5: we can revisit this salary in six months? Please evaluate me? Right? 522 00:24:54,560 --> 00:24:56,640 Speaker 5: The other thing I heard from that was please evaluate 523 00:24:56,680 --> 00:24:59,080 Speaker 5: me because i know I'm going to be so successful 524 00:24:59,160 --> 00:25:02,520 Speaker 5: in this role. So, like, those are all the things 525 00:25:02,520 --> 00:25:05,160 Speaker 5: that I was hearing through the messaging of that right, 526 00:25:05,160 --> 00:25:09,360 Speaker 5: because it's saying one you're confident that you're going to perform, too, 527 00:25:09,800 --> 00:25:14,680 Speaker 5: that yeah, this salary is actually low, but I'm giving something, 528 00:25:15,080 --> 00:25:17,239 Speaker 5: so what are you giving to me in return? Right, 529 00:25:17,520 --> 00:25:20,640 Speaker 5: Never give up something without expecting something in return for it. 530 00:25:21,119 --> 00:25:23,280 Speaker 5: And the third thing is that, look, just because you're 531 00:25:23,280 --> 00:25:25,160 Speaker 5: saying no now, it doesn't mean that it has been 532 00:25:25,160 --> 00:25:28,479 Speaker 5: no forever. I want to know if we can come 533 00:25:28,520 --> 00:25:31,040 Speaker 5: back to this. I'd love to have this conversation again, 534 00:25:31,920 --> 00:25:34,359 Speaker 5: because then you should also be telling yourself, Okay, what 535 00:25:34,440 --> 00:25:37,080 Speaker 5: if it's six months it turns out to be a year, 536 00:25:37,160 --> 00:25:38,800 Speaker 5: and what if a year turns out to be eighteen 537 00:25:38,800 --> 00:25:42,359 Speaker 5: months and they still haven't done something? Right? So I 538 00:25:42,440 --> 00:25:45,639 Speaker 5: really actually like that scenario a lot of things about it. 539 00:25:45,680 --> 00:25:47,800 Speaker 5: You're also really certain that this is the company you 540 00:25:47,840 --> 00:25:50,080 Speaker 5: want to be at, and I think that that will 541 00:25:50,080 --> 00:25:52,800 Speaker 5: make for better engagement on your part as well. 542 00:25:53,480 --> 00:25:55,960 Speaker 4: Yes, I love what you just said. No doesn't mean 543 00:25:56,000 --> 00:25:59,000 Speaker 4: no forever, maybe just not right now. So I know 544 00:25:59,240 --> 00:26:02,080 Speaker 4: I learned a lot from this conversation, Maury. I know 545 00:26:02,160 --> 00:26:05,240 Speaker 4: Jimmy did as well, and we hope everybody listening takes 546 00:26:05,280 --> 00:26:08,520 Speaker 4: away some actionable advice. So thank you so much for 547 00:26:08,600 --> 00:26:10,720 Speaker 4: joining us, Maury. It was really great talking with you. 548 00:26:11,160 --> 00:26:13,119 Speaker 1: Yes, thank you, thank you. 549 00:26:13,400 --> 00:26:14,320 Speaker 5: It was so much fun. 550 00:26:17,320 --> 00:26:19,119 Speaker 3: All right, I need to go get more coffee. You 551 00:26:19,160 --> 00:26:21,440 Speaker 3: should too, and we'll be right back after the break. 552 00:26:31,080 --> 00:26:31,320 Speaker 2: Yo. 553 00:26:31,480 --> 00:26:36,240 Speaker 1: Gee, Maury was awesome. I love her. I learned so much. 554 00:26:36,240 --> 00:26:38,280 Speaker 2: Especially in the role play sanction. I feel like I'm 555 00:26:38,320 --> 00:26:41,480 Speaker 2: empowered to do the redit ago. One of the things 556 00:26:41,520 --> 00:26:44,719 Speaker 2: that I really really took away from that interview was 557 00:26:45,040 --> 00:26:47,880 Speaker 2: just how big of a role imposter syndrome plays into 558 00:26:47,920 --> 00:26:50,200 Speaker 2: all of this. While you got to dead that from 559 00:26:50,200 --> 00:26:52,760 Speaker 2: the jump, like you gotta leave it at the door, right, 560 00:26:52,840 --> 00:26:56,600 Speaker 2: because it will keep you from negotiating, It will keep 561 00:26:56,600 --> 00:26:58,200 Speaker 2: you from asking your worth. 562 00:26:58,600 --> 00:27:00,359 Speaker 1: What did you take away from the interview? 563 00:27:00,480 --> 00:27:03,560 Speaker 4: I loved her emphasis on preparation, especially coming from my 564 00:27:03,720 --> 00:27:07,320 Speaker 4: place where I didn't prepare whatsoever for my first negotiation. 565 00:27:08,080 --> 00:27:11,199 Speaker 4: And I think what was so important in that piece 566 00:27:11,440 --> 00:27:14,280 Speaker 4: is this idea of like going in with your numbers, 567 00:27:14,440 --> 00:27:18,119 Speaker 4: knowing what you're worth, so understanding in this industry, in 568 00:27:18,160 --> 00:27:20,960 Speaker 4: this job where I'm living, how much can I potentially 569 00:27:20,960 --> 00:27:23,360 Speaker 4: earn in this role? And you do that by searching 570 00:27:23,400 --> 00:27:26,760 Speaker 4: online speaking to people in that desired industry. So that 571 00:27:26,800 --> 00:27:29,320 Speaker 4: you go in with numbers because you can't debate the facts. 572 00:27:29,359 --> 00:27:32,960 Speaker 4: Like the thing is the facts you can't you can't 573 00:27:32,960 --> 00:27:35,399 Speaker 4: debate that, and I think too, it also helps you 574 00:27:35,720 --> 00:27:37,919 Speaker 4: take away some of the emotion that we, you know, 575 00:27:38,040 --> 00:27:41,320 Speaker 4: naturally feel when it comes to negotiating. So it really 576 00:27:41,400 --> 00:27:43,320 Speaker 4: is you coming in being like, here's what the numbers 577 00:27:43,320 --> 00:27:46,840 Speaker 4: are showing me. Really come in prepared with what you 578 00:27:46,880 --> 00:27:52,120 Speaker 4: want out of this negotiation and understand everything that's possible 579 00:27:52,160 --> 00:27:54,760 Speaker 4: to you. And at the end of the day, like 580 00:27:55,080 --> 00:27:57,280 Speaker 4: you'll listen to this episode and I hope you take 581 00:27:57,320 --> 00:28:01,440 Speaker 4: away that one you have the right to negotiate and 582 00:28:01,480 --> 00:28:04,359 Speaker 4: your offer is not at risk. But still it's going 583 00:28:04,359 --> 00:28:07,600 Speaker 4: to be nerve wracking, Like there's no perfect way to 584 00:28:07,640 --> 00:28:09,879 Speaker 4: completely get rid of those nerves. So you really just 585 00:28:09,960 --> 00:28:13,199 Speaker 4: have to start doing it and celebrate the small wins, 586 00:28:13,440 --> 00:28:15,680 Speaker 4: which is probably just asking, right, Like maybe you don't 587 00:28:15,720 --> 00:28:18,920 Speaker 4: land the high salary, but you get something else, and 588 00:28:19,200 --> 00:28:21,120 Speaker 4: just the fact that you made the ask is a win, 589 00:28:21,240 --> 00:28:23,640 Speaker 4: So celebrate that, and each time you do it, you'll 590 00:28:23,680 --> 00:28:24,960 Speaker 4: only get more and more comfortable. 591 00:28:25,359 --> 00:28:28,920 Speaker 2: Heck, yeah, okay, So Gianna, you know I love to 592 00:28:28,960 --> 00:28:30,240 Speaker 2: play games over here. 593 00:28:30,400 --> 00:28:31,320 Speaker 1: I'm never serious. 594 00:28:31,680 --> 00:28:33,920 Speaker 2: So I want to talk about our next segment, which 595 00:28:33,960 --> 00:28:35,760 Speaker 2: is called show the Receipts. 596 00:28:35,920 --> 00:28:37,960 Speaker 1: Maybe I love receipts all day? Call me a textag. 597 00:28:38,520 --> 00:28:41,320 Speaker 1: My receipts are so organized. I love this. 598 00:28:41,800 --> 00:28:44,880 Speaker 2: We're going to be discussing some pretty common myths about 599 00:28:44,880 --> 00:28:48,520 Speaker 2: young people at work and why they're wrong or not. 600 00:28:49,360 --> 00:28:50,960 Speaker 2: You want to know this week's hot take, give it 601 00:28:51,000 --> 00:28:53,400 Speaker 2: to me. So I was reading this article Unfortune that 602 00:28:53,440 --> 00:28:56,680 Speaker 2: came out this year, and it was discussing how gen 603 00:28:56,800 --> 00:29:02,280 Speaker 2: Z is totally over having their work epic questioned. It 604 00:29:02,320 --> 00:29:07,080 Speaker 2: brought up Gianna's eyes are watering like, it brought up 605 00:29:07,240 --> 00:29:08,960 Speaker 2: conversations around gen Z. 606 00:29:09,520 --> 00:29:12,680 Speaker 1: Are you guys lazy? Are you guys like tapped in 607 00:29:12,840 --> 00:29:13,560 Speaker 1: at work? 608 00:29:13,760 --> 00:29:13,840 Speaker 2: Like? 609 00:29:14,720 --> 00:29:18,160 Speaker 1: What is going on? Giana? What do you think about? 610 00:29:18,200 --> 00:29:18,400 Speaker 5: This? 611 00:29:18,720 --> 00:29:20,560 Speaker 1: Is gen Z lazy at work? 612 00:29:20,840 --> 00:29:21,120 Speaker 3: Jamay? 613 00:29:21,200 --> 00:29:23,600 Speaker 4: Thank you so much asking This is the one that 614 00:29:23,760 --> 00:29:27,560 Speaker 4: really gets my blood boiling because I think it's such 615 00:29:27,560 --> 00:29:30,400 Speaker 4: a generalization. No, I do not think gen Z is 616 00:29:30,480 --> 00:29:33,080 Speaker 4: lazy at work. I think when we saw this narrative 617 00:29:33,200 --> 00:29:35,680 Speaker 4: begin to pick up, it was around the quiet quitting trend, 618 00:29:35,720 --> 00:29:38,880 Speaker 4: which is this idea that people want to do the 619 00:29:38,880 --> 00:29:42,880 Speaker 4: bare minimum at work and a lot of the articles 620 00:29:42,920 --> 00:29:44,560 Speaker 4: were saying, you know, gen Z wants to clock out 621 00:29:44,600 --> 00:29:48,720 Speaker 4: at five, which like, because we have to go to 622 00:29:48,800 --> 00:29:51,440 Speaker 4: other jobs. Like that is the reality of it, right, 623 00:29:51,520 --> 00:29:53,160 Speaker 4: whether you have your own company, whether you have a 624 00:29:53,160 --> 00:29:56,120 Speaker 4: part time gig after work, gen Z is known to 625 00:29:56,120 --> 00:29:59,800 Speaker 4: be working multiple jobs. So I think I'm also like, 626 00:29:59,840 --> 00:30:01,480 Speaker 4: how how the heck did we get to the point 627 00:30:01,600 --> 00:30:04,480 Speaker 4: where like leaving at five is considered lazy, Like, come 628 00:30:04,560 --> 00:30:07,719 Speaker 4: on that, I'm scared for our future. Transparently, if I'm 629 00:30:07,760 --> 00:30:10,400 Speaker 4: done at five, I'm leaving like I'm going to head home, right. 630 00:30:10,880 --> 00:30:13,120 Speaker 3: I think Two is we. 631 00:30:13,040 --> 00:30:15,440 Speaker 4: Want to be paid for the work that we are 632 00:30:15,480 --> 00:30:19,240 Speaker 4: asked to do, so that is just I'll leave it there, 633 00:30:19,280 --> 00:30:21,080 Speaker 4: like we want to be paid. The other part of 634 00:30:21,080 --> 00:30:23,920 Speaker 4: it too, though, I will say, like what is lazy, right? 635 00:30:23,960 --> 00:30:25,680 Speaker 4: Is it because we want to clock out at five? 636 00:30:26,040 --> 00:30:28,440 Speaker 4: Is it on the job like during the day, Like, 637 00:30:28,680 --> 00:30:31,000 Speaker 4: you know, why are we being painted that way? And 638 00:30:31,080 --> 00:30:33,720 Speaker 4: I do think listen, like give us some space to 639 00:30:34,360 --> 00:30:36,080 Speaker 4: learn and grow. A lot of us are early in 640 00:30:36,080 --> 00:30:39,320 Speaker 4: our careers. We're learning how to experience corporate life for 641 00:30:39,360 --> 00:30:43,560 Speaker 4: the first time, and maybe some of us will need, 642 00:30:43,680 --> 00:30:46,320 Speaker 4: you know, extra support. Yeah, I think that's on us 643 00:30:46,360 --> 00:30:48,440 Speaker 4: to also know when to ask. It's something I've had 644 00:30:48,440 --> 00:30:50,120 Speaker 4: to learn when to raise my hand and say, like 645 00:30:50,120 --> 00:30:51,880 Speaker 4: I actually might need a little bit help on this, 646 00:30:52,280 --> 00:30:53,960 Speaker 4: rather than just like sitting there being like I don't 647 00:30:53,960 --> 00:30:56,520 Speaker 4: even know what to do. So I think that's part 648 00:30:56,560 --> 00:30:58,000 Speaker 4: of it too, right, like maybe we just need a 649 00:30:58,040 --> 00:31:00,360 Speaker 4: little bit extra support and like need those my doors 650 00:31:00,400 --> 00:31:06,880 Speaker 4: need that management early on. But the headline, I would say, yes, 651 00:31:07,040 --> 00:31:10,200 Speaker 4: we're over being questioned on our work ethic, and. 652 00:31:10,080 --> 00:31:11,520 Speaker 3: Now I do not think gen Z's I see. 653 00:31:11,640 --> 00:31:13,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, I feel love it about you. 654 00:31:13,440 --> 00:31:15,840 Speaker 2: I love what you said, especially around like the fact 655 00:31:15,880 --> 00:31:17,880 Speaker 2: that a lot of people have a lot of jobs. 656 00:31:18,200 --> 00:31:22,240 Speaker 2: Because for the first like almost decade of my career, 657 00:31:22,560 --> 00:31:24,880 Speaker 2: I had multiple jobs. So I would get up, I 658 00:31:24,880 --> 00:31:26,800 Speaker 2: would clock into my nine to five, I would clock 659 00:31:26,840 --> 00:31:28,600 Speaker 2: out by a certain time because I knew that I 660 00:31:28,640 --> 00:31:30,200 Speaker 2: had to go in the back when I was like 661 00:31:30,400 --> 00:31:33,200 Speaker 2: doing waitressing or bartending and then hit the floor, and 662 00:31:33,240 --> 00:31:35,120 Speaker 2: then I was coming home and then still working on 663 00:31:35,160 --> 00:31:37,200 Speaker 2: my brand, or even when I was just freelancing, I 664 00:31:37,240 --> 00:31:39,920 Speaker 2: gotta go home, I gotta make deadline right. And so 665 00:31:40,280 --> 00:31:43,240 Speaker 2: I have always known that there is a hard start 666 00:31:43,280 --> 00:31:46,360 Speaker 2: and a hard stop to my day. And I think 667 00:31:46,360 --> 00:31:50,120 Speaker 2: that when jobs are seeing that you don't want to 668 00:31:50,160 --> 00:31:52,240 Speaker 2: do that, but you still are getting the work done. 669 00:31:52,280 --> 00:31:54,840 Speaker 2: They're just a little like why are you not fully 670 00:31:54,840 --> 00:31:58,000 Speaker 2: invested one thousand percent in here? But the reality is, 671 00:31:58,080 --> 00:32:01,200 Speaker 2: like you have other things to do, respectfully. I think 672 00:32:01,320 --> 00:32:05,200 Speaker 2: gen Z sets really strong boundaries and it maybe triggers 673 00:32:05,280 --> 00:32:08,480 Speaker 2: other people who don't have boundaries, setting me guils. 674 00:32:08,280 --> 00:32:10,120 Speaker 3: Them like think, okay, well why do I have a 675 00:32:10,120 --> 00:32:10,560 Speaker 3: problem with that? 676 00:32:10,800 --> 00:32:13,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, but baby girl, like no one's telling you to 677 00:32:13,800 --> 00:32:17,160 Speaker 2: clock back in at eight pm to answer emails, like 678 00:32:17,600 --> 00:32:20,440 Speaker 2: and if you are really, then you really? I mean 679 00:32:20,520 --> 00:32:22,680 Speaker 2: I do too, but that's because I'm already up at night. 680 00:32:22,720 --> 00:32:25,720 Speaker 2: But like if you if you are finding that you 681 00:32:25,920 --> 00:32:29,960 Speaker 2: are over extending yourself. Those are conversations that you need 682 00:32:30,040 --> 00:32:33,720 Speaker 2: to have either with your manager or when you are 683 00:32:33,800 --> 00:32:37,000 Speaker 2: even looking at like you know, your corporate wish list, 684 00:32:37,400 --> 00:32:40,719 Speaker 2: like asking those things to the employer, like what do 685 00:32:40,800 --> 00:32:43,800 Speaker 2: the hours look like? Do you allow for flexible working hours? 686 00:32:44,000 --> 00:32:46,240 Speaker 2: Can I clock out to go pick up my kid 687 00:32:46,560 --> 00:32:48,640 Speaker 2: or to go to the store or whatever, Like I mean, 688 00:32:48,680 --> 00:32:50,280 Speaker 2: don't maybe don't tell them if you're going to go 689 00:32:50,320 --> 00:32:52,520 Speaker 2: to like the store, but like there are things that 690 00:32:52,560 --> 00:32:54,720 Speaker 2: you can ask right so that you can kind of. 691 00:32:54,680 --> 00:32:55,560 Speaker 1: Plan your day out. 692 00:32:55,800 --> 00:32:58,280 Speaker 2: I think a couple of videos that just happen to 693 00:32:58,360 --> 00:33:01,080 Speaker 2: be gen z ers have gone viral and people are 694 00:33:01,080 --> 00:33:04,560 Speaker 2: trying to make reductions about the entire workforce.
