WTS-Boston's Professional Development Committee invites you to join a virtual Negotiation & Compensation Workshop by The Thoughtful Co. (link to website: https://www.thethoughtfulco.net/) on Tuesday, July 19 from 6-7pm.
This workshop will help you understand your full compensation package, and empower you to confidently negotiate for the compensation you deserve. Led by Jillian Climie, who has spent her career in compensation, it will teach you how compensation decisions are made within employers and what you should be thinking about before you enter a negotiation. Key takeaways from this workshop include:
• Understanding your full compensation package (beyond base salary), and what components may be negotiable
• How to think strategically about your compensation over the long-term
• What biases women face in negotiations, and how to overcome them
• How to negotiate in a powerful, positive way
• Knowing your non-negotiables and risk/reward profile
• How to articulate your strengths
This workshop will include a presentation by the Thoughtful Co., breakout rooms to have meaningful discussion, and a question and answer session.
