How to negotiate effectively with Wendy Chow

Once you know what you want from your job, the next step is to ask for it. In this episode of How to Get What You Want at Work, Molly is joined by Wendy Chow, a general counsel at Cityblock Health and a master negotiator for her company and friends alike. Wendy believes that advocating for yourself and asking for what you need is a skill that everyone can learn, and she offers practical tips and tricks for negotiating better pay, more support, or healthier working conditions for you and your teammates. She and Molly break down the types of fear many people struggle with when negotiating, dig deeper into how your identity can shape your experience of self-advocacy, and offer advice on how to identify the North Star that you’re working toward in your career. Wendy also shares her pre-negotiation rituals, and why being prepared for a conversation can make a real difference.
