Finding the Throughline with Kate Hanley [Earn More]: Stealthy Strategies for Getting a Raise Ep. 744
Perhaps the most obvious way to earn more money–which is the subject of all the episodes here on How to Be a Better Person this week–is to get a raise at work. And yet, according to a Payscale survey, 60% of Americans have never asked for a raise. Today’s episode is designed to keep you out of this 60%!
I’m talking with DeAnne Pearson, a career coach in Austin, Texas, and the founder of DeliberateCareers.com. I've sent many people to DeAnne over the years to help them figure out how to earn more while also enjoying their work more. I love her loving straight talk, and I think you will too.
[After this question: " A lot of times the only thing standing between us and making more money is us... we're not feeling confident enough to make the ask, or are more focused on why it won't work than how it could. What kind of a pep talk can you give to someone who needs a little oomph to go about asking for that raise or promotion." ... you can start DeAnne's answer when she says “One of the first things I would say is…."--and cut what she said before.]
