The power dynamic – The value of IT and knowing your worth

We’ve all been told to always negotiate, and we probably do — but are we doing it well? Many leaders will negotiate and still underestimate their true value, whether it be for the salary, role, responsibilities or benefits they desire. Be ready to learn about best practices and challenges in navigating negotiations with confidence and value-added results.
