Join the Women in Engineering and Geoscience Division for a webinar series focused around supporting career progression of women in the profession.

The first workshop, led by The Thoughtful Co., will enable you to feel confident in asking for the compensation you deserve. They will cover topics ranging from how to navigate salary discussions with your manager and what additional compensation and benefits are appropriate to push for, to what biases are faced in negotiations and how to work around them.

Key takeaways include:

• What pieces of compensation & benefits are appropriate to push on (beyond salary)?
• How compensation decisions are made with employers.
• What you should and shouldn't use as rationale for a pay increase.
• The biases women face in negotiations, and how to work around them.
• When you should be bringing up compensation, and how to frame the ask.
