New Webinar Topic!
Wednesday, November 10, 2010, 7 - 8 p.m., Central Time
Whether you're just starting a job search, or expecting an offer next week, you're probably thinking about enhancing the salary and benefits package through negotiating. You may have gotten different advice about negotiating, maybe you don't like talking about money, or are afraid to negotiate at all, for fear the offer may be pulled away. You may also be wondering if you can get the four weeks of vacation you presently enjoy in your current position.
Join career management consultant Jim Kacena, who will help you recognize your professional worth and your worth to an organization - key points for negotiating. Jim will give you a framework for the interactions around salary and negotiation, including how to respond to discussions of money early in the screening and interviewing process. He will also share sample responses to the offer you receive and strategies for negotiating perks as well as compensation. Leave this webinar with a negotiating model, information to research salaries and confidence to approach this important conversation so that you and your new employer emerge with win-win results.
Jim Kacena is a career management consultant with over 30 years' experience. He has worked with over 4,000 individuals in career transition, career development and executive coaching. He is a globally recognized expert who is frequently recruited to direct outplacement and change management projects.
