Juliana discovered by mistake that her male colleague was making almost 40% more than she was.
After this discovery, she harbored anger and frustration for a whole year!
Ready to jump ship, Juliana sought my help with her resume and career strategy.
Digging deeper like I always do, I uncovered her love for every aspect of her job. The real issue wasn’t her role but the stark salary inequality she endured silently for a year. Instead of helping her to seek another job, we devised a bold strategy – one rooted in the science of persuasion.
You don’t walk into your boss’ office and say “Hi, I need a higher salary”.
I introduced Juliana to the ‘1,2,3 formula’ from our Persuasion and Influence course, Elévate.
Instead of bluntly asking for a raise, she crafted a persuasive proposal highlighting her accomplishments. When she added the value of her contributions, it amounted to hundreds of thousands of dollars in cost avoidance initiatives.
The result? A remarkable 42% salary increase, a rarity in her industry.
However, the true magic wasn’t just the salary boost; it was the moment her boss, prompted by the proposal, discovered the salary discrepancy that tormented Juliana for a year. He didn’t know.
We emphasize it often: mastering persuasion not only helps you achieve your goals faster but also eradicates needless suffering. It reveals your power, amplifies your voice, and leads to a happier, more fulfilled leadership journey.
