Try to get the other side to name a number first. Once anchored, all negotiation revolves around that number.

💡If forced to go first, aim high with a justification. You can always come down.

Understand why they want what they want. Find creative solutions that satisfy both parties' underlying needs.

💡Frame as 'we' solving a problem together, not 'me vs. you.'

💡De person who can walk away has the most power. Have alternatives!

After receiving an offer, before accepting. Also: during reviews, after big wins, when taking new responsibilities.

It rarely is. Ask: 'Is there any flexibility on..?' Try negotiating other benefits: vacation, signing bonus, remote work.

Be collaborative, not combative. Express enthusiasm for the opportunity. Use 'we' language. Ask questions, don't demand.
