CEO EXPLAINS: Working Habits Keeping You Undervalued
from Negotiate Anything · host Kwame Christian Esq., M.A.
Stop waiting for your hard work to speak for itself — the silence may be exactly why you're being undervalued. In this masterclass edition of Negotiate Anything, elite voices come together to help you stop "negotiating down on yourself" before you ever reach the table. In this episode, you'll learn: The Power of Self-Advocacy: Heather Spillsbury, COO of 50/50 Women on Boards, reveals why even high-performing leaders underestimate their value — and how a "high-impact soundbite" can instantly elevate your presence to boardroom-ready. The "Mercenary" Mindset: Jasani Courtney, VP of Human Resources, reframes your career as a business transaction — where you intentionally sell your skills to the highest-value opportunity. Why Negotiation Isn't Risky: Discover why it makes zero sense for companies to pull offers simply because you negotiated. The Holistic Offer: Learn how to evaluate total compensation beyond salary — time off, benefits, retirement, and bonuses — so your job supports your life, not the other way around. Pre-Negotiation Marketing: Understand why negotiation starts long before the table, through consistent, authentic visibility of your value. Whether you're pursuing a promotion or a seat in the boardroom, this episode delivers the mindset shifts and practical strategies needed to advocate confidently and secure the compensation you deserve.
