In Boston, women working full time, on average, take home $0.76 to a man's $1.00 -- a gender pay gap of 24 cents. It's worse for women of color.
AAUW Work Smart in Boston is an initiative of AAUW and the Mayor's Office of Women's Advancement to empower women with the tools and skills they need to advocate for themselves in the workplace. This program is one part of the City of Boston's first-in-the-nation pay equity model.
Attend this FREE two-hour salary negotiation workshop to learn how to confidently and successfully negotiate your salary and benefits packages. In this workshop, you’ll gain confidence in your negotiation style through facilitated discussion and role-playing and learn,
- How to identify and articulate your personal value
- How to develop an arsenal of persuasive responses and other strategies to use when negotiating
- How to conduct objective market research to benchmark a target salary and benefits
- About the wage gap, including its long-term consequences
You will also have an opportunity to practice your negotiation.
If you are not able to attend this workshop for any reason please visit our website at boston.gov/work-smart to sign up for a different day and time!
