Why should your boss give you a pay raise? Why is it good for her/him? During the negotiation try to list as many arguments as possible, which are proving that it is in your boss' interest to give you a pay raise. I know it sounds a little bit weird, but just try it. For your boss (as for any other human being) his or hers interests are the most important. Your boss doesn't really care if you have problems managing your own money. He or she wants to know, what is it in for him/her. These advantages can be: more clients, higher performance, more efficiency. Want more?

Stavros Bezas Mon, 08 Mar 2010 00:03:26 +0000 http://artofmanliness.com/?p=51#comment-96855 Great article. Three things: 1. Know what you want (many different ways to get money (base pay, bonus,etc), you may want a promotion (title) or opportunity) 2. Know who can give it to you (boss, different group/company) 3. Make it easy for them to give it to you! Could up pay for your position, but a promotion may have lots of red tape. Have your successes proven to make it easy to push through! Great article.

Brave enough to face to get what he wants. Of course you are right that if you ask, you must be the one to give first or you've got what it takes to get what you wanted. It's true in work and in finding a lifetime partner. That’s my man! Brave enough to face to get what he wants.
