7 Ways to Increase Your Current Executive Salary

7 Ways to Increase Your Current Executive Salary As professionals, the salary we make is often closely associated with our sense of value and self-worth. If you are one of the many professionals who feel overworked and underpaid, figuring out how to bridge that gap between where you are now and where you know you should be can be daunting and perhaps a little scary. But receiving a well-deserved salary increase will also provide the opportunity to feel more confident and satisfied in your career! When you take that step in acknowledging your value, it produces an interesting effect as you call to action the people and things around you to support your moving forward! That might sound a little new-agey to you, but it’s really just common sense and the result of exercising of your own initiative. Here are 7 tips to get you quickly moving forward to securing a bigger salary: Tip #1: Quick, write out 30 benefits you bring to your position. To achieve your salary increase, you may have to change companies. However, you may also be surprised to find that your current employer is indeed willing to promote you or to offer you more salary. To make your case, you are going to have to demonstrate (and fully believe) the 30 benefits you bring to your current position right now. Benefits are not what you do, but what you achieve. Notice that when most people update their resume, they will only include a laundry list of current position “duties,” without explaining what happens when they do what they do! Benefits show why a company should hire you, promote you or give you a raise. Tip #2: Keep adding to that list. Most professionals are so busy they don’t even think about the benefits they bring to a company. Keep adding to your list, because the more that you focus on clearly knowing and understanding the value you bring to a company, the more natural it will be for you to confidently see precisely WHY you should be commanding a higher salary! Tip #3: Create a value statement that distinguishes your work. Can you describe your brilliance in just one sentence? My tagline is “The #1 Online Resource for Multi 6 7 Figure Executives.”   It’s a crystal clear and confident message that captures the attention of professionals needing resumes and coaching services! So what is your tagline? Tip #4: Own your increase. Most companies WILL respect your new salary parameters. Of course, thats as long as your parameters are not 50 times what you are making now (although, I have seen some enormous salary increases). Yes, acknowledging, defining and then ASKING for a higher salary can seem daunting at first, but after you fully accept you are worth it, I promise the confidence you’ll feel will be contagious! Tip #5: Ask for more. Generally, we put more value on things that “cost” more. So when you ask for what you are really worth, you will find yourself attracting the type of position or company that resonates with your new shift in perception. This is not any special law of attraction â€" this is simply exploring and defining a new belief and putting that new belief into motion. If you are questioned in an interview about the salary you want (compared to the one you currently have), there are several great responses readily available in most job interview and negotiating books. I personally recommend Jack Chapman’s Negotiating Your Salary: How to Make $1000 a Minute. Tip #6: Do what you love; ditch what you don’t. Focusing your time and energy on a position that you love but a company you don’t is a big red flag that should inspire you to look for a company more in line with your professional goals and philosophies. Likewise, if you feel stuck in your position, but you truly respect and enjoy your company, then it is time to reassess your current role. Part of valuing yourself (via a salary increase) is honoring those urges to shift your focus to more harmonious environments. You also honor your co-workers AND your company when you do this. Tip #7: Take control and ride the wave. Making the choice to increase your salary is life-changing. You will feel a surge of confidence when you begin to take control of your career and its direction â€" including how much money you make. The newfound confidence this will give you will serve you in multiple ways, including a continuation of new goals and boundaries you can create in order to give yourself a platform to rise to the fullness of your professional potential. Most professionals that work for someone else believe they have little control over these matters. However, once you begin to understand that you are truly much more in control of your current circumstances than perhaps you once thought, you will start a positive chain reaction that can open doors to more work satisfaction, more potential to succeed and more money.

Mandatory Greatness Put The Fish On The Table And Let Everyone Smell It - Work It Daily

Obligatory Greatness Put The Fish On The Table And Let Everyone Smell It - Work It Daily NOTE: This is a book selection with minor alters from Mandatory Greatness: The 12 Laws Of Driving Exceptional Performance by J.T. O'Donnell and Dale Dauten. Put the fish on the table and let everybody smell it. I've seen individuals siphon up the commendations and afterward move so gently over the analysis that individuals overlook what's really important, leaving that all is well and nothing needs to change. Or on the other hand, on the off chance that they hear the analysis, that is all they will hear in any case, and the commendations simply cause them to loathe the analysis. Miserable. That is the reason I put stock in declaring that you need to have a hard discussion and focus in on what should be extraordinary. That is the reason I love that articulation Put the fish on the table and let everybody smell it. Smelling The Fish Yvonne clarified that the announcement went to her from an official with one of the monster human services organizations. He was disappointed that workers were so neighborly and positive and stayed away from the negative. He continued saying, We have to put the realities on the table, however neglected to get through the cone of positivism. At that point, one day he mis-recalled an odd articulation from a Swiss therapist and told his group, How about we put the fish on the table and let everybody smell it. What? There was something in particular about that little sentence - astonishing and entertaining and out of control - that enchanted the group mind out of its run of the mill thought designs. The group started to truly talk, to truly consider that they could be better, particularly at knowing their clients. Here's the manner by which Yvonne summarized what that fish could achieve. Suppose you began utilizing that little explanation about the fish on the table. It makes individuals grin. It incapacitates them. It isn't alarming like 'face up to what's going on.' Putting the fish on the table is an enthusiastic method of saying, 'How about we show signs of improvement.' That isn't unnerving, it's empowering. At the organization it arrived at where, when one official will acquaint me with another, he says such that tells me this is high commendation, He's somebody who truly puts the fish on the table.' This struck me as bizarre, yet as Yvonne said that last sentence, I wound up longing to be that person, the person who could talk hard certainties such that individuals invited the discussion. I needed to be a person who put the fish on the table. Indeed, even as I was believing that, Yvonne was squeezing ahead, saying, alright, so what is this fish we need to put on the table? Reality, I answered. The realities. The stuff that sounds negative yet truly isn't in case you're willing to accomplish something with it. Indeed, the fish is the realities. We must have the realities. We need measurements. There's that old line, 'What completes estimated gets,' and it works. On account of the medicinal services official, he wanted to discuss numbers â€" the percent of time in the field and how long since workers had conversed with clients. On the off chance that the pioneer can refer to those numbers, I wager each chief can. That is the means by which the fish turns into the realities that shape the organization. Required Greatness is introduced as a discussion between a powerful business mentor, Yvonne Wolfe (depicted as having skirts of steel), and a youthful supervisor who won a day of her training in a foundation wager. She watches him in his work, at that point offers an obvious and frightening examination of him and his way to deal with his activity: By copying different administrators he is making himself a ware item bound for incidental unremarkableness.
