Ep 021: Asking for a Pay Rise Women at the Top of Telecoms and Tech

This week, I am going to help you ask for a pay rise and really the theme is if you don’t ask, you don’t get. If you're not asking for what you're worth, or if you're not negotiating at the beginning of a job, what you're worth, that's you not owning your value. What I often see women do when they come to work with me is they've taken on more and more, their role has become bigger but there has been no change in their job title or their salary to go with it.
Here are the highlights:
(04:48) 60% of women say they have never negotiated with an employer over their salary 
(07:41) Women tend to start their first job at a lower level on a lower salary
(10:05) Why do women find it so hard to ask for a pay rise?
(17:28) Over the course of your career, you could lose up to 1 million pounds
(19:23) Currently, it would take 136 years to close the gender pay gap
(22:50) Take credit, own your self-promotion and your value
(25:42) Think about the timing of when you are asking for a pay rise
(28:25) Think about what is holding you back
