Прошла курс перед разговором о повышении и наконец поняла, как правильно оценивать свою рыночную стоимость вместо того чтобы гадать. Практические скрипты для переговоров оказались очень конкретными, без воды. В итоге получила повышение, о котором говорила, и почувствовала себя гораздо увереннее на встрече.

Dati, takot na takot akong magtanong ng dagdag na sweldo kasi parang ang kapal ng mukha. Dito, natutunan ko kung paano mag-research ng market value ko at gumawa ng matibay na rason bago makipag-usap sa manager. Malinaw ang mga halimbawa kung paano i-frame ang hiling mo nang propesyonal. Sana lang may mas marami pang halimbawa para sa promotion negotiation, hindi lang job change. Pero sa kabuuan, sobrang nakatulong at mas kumpiyansa na ako ngayon makipag-negotiate.

यह कोर्स सैलरी नेगोशिएशन को लेकर मेरे डर को काफी हद तक कम करने में मददगार रहा, खासकर मार्केट वैल्यू रिसर्च वाला हिस्सा बहुत प्रैक्टिकल लगा। कुछ उदाहरण अमेरिकी कंपनियों पर केंद्रित थे जो भारतीय कॉर्पोरेट माहौल में पूरी तरह फिट नहीं बैठते, फिर भी मूल रणनीतियां हर जगह काम आती हैं। प्रमोशन की बातचीत में जाने से पहले मैंने नोट्स दोबारा पढ़े और आत्मविश्वास के साथ बात रख पाया।

Полезно, но местами слишком общо.

Fiz esse curso antes de pedir um aumento e mudou completamente minha abordagem. A parte sobre pesquisar o valor de mercado me deu números concretos para apresentar, e o roteiro para construir o argumento fez toda a diferença na reunião. Saí de lá com um aumento maior do que eu esperava.

The market research module was genuinely useful, I finally understood how to benchmark my role instead of just guessing a number. Building the case for the raise took some practice since the templates felt a bit generic at first, but once I adapted them to my own situation the conversation with my manager went smoothly.

Ho seguito questo corso dopo essere rimasto bloccato allo stesso stipendio per tre anni e devo dire che mi ha dato gli strumenti giusti per affrontare la conversazione con il mio capo. La parte sulla ricerca del valore di mercato è stata la più utile, perché finalmente avevo dei numeri reali da portare al tavolo invece di sensazioni vaghe. Gli esercizi per costruire l'argomentazione richiedono un po' di tempo e alcuni esempi sono pensati più per il mercato americano che per quello italiano, quindi ho dovuto adattare qualcosa. Nonostante questo piccolo limite, il metodo funziona ed è stato decisivo per ottenere l'aumento che volevo.
