Review

Evening Standard Review (11/9/01) ""an excellent handbook that helps you do just what it says""""from assessing your real value to exactly when to approach your boss, How to Get A Pay Rise gets to the nitty gritty of what you need to do to improve your financial worth and present your case""""the general message is powerful""""unravels the mystery of why it is other people get the pay rises"" Management Today review: Asking for a pay rise can be tricky. Alison Eadie enjoys a guide that is full of wage-boosting tips. ""...Americans do it better than the British. Men do it better than women. It is asking the boss for a pay rise and, according to this book, three out of four people have never done it. Such timidity seems extraordinary" "... In the imperfect world we live in, if you don't ask you don't get." "There is plenty of useful advice in Ros Jay's book, which is written in a clear and colloquial style. How to Get a Pay Rise covers not just how to ask for more money but how to position yourself in advance to increase your chances. " "The chapter on how to create a job for yourself is apposite. Organisations are constantly changing, so you can make your own opportunities for promotion rather than wait around for the next vacancy. Whether we find it hard or not, we have to know our worth and how to sell ourselves. Prevailing management theory tells us we are responsible for our own careers nowadays. It therefore follows that we are responsible for our own salaries. This book will help the timid and the squeamish (and the women and the Brits) fight their corner.""
