It may be surprising to some people that not everyone holding the same position within an organization receives equal pay when completing the same tasks with the same level of expertise. But this is the case in most organizations. Studies have found a persistent wage gap between men and women, with Canadian women earning $0.71 to every dollar earned by their male counterparts as of 2008 (Cool, 2010), as well as an average wage gap of approximately $7,000 a year for members of visible minorities regardless of gender (Block &amp; Galabuzi, 2011). While there are many reasons for this disparity, recent research has uncovered that there is one piece of the puzzle that an employee has some control over: differing negotiation practices employed by men and women (Babcock &amp; Laschever, 2003). Research has found that women are less likely to ask for money when discussing starting salaries and also tend to ask for less money than their male counterparts. Some researchers suggest that society has taught women that they may come across as pushy or lose job opportunities by asking for too much. However, men and women alike can find workplace negotiations intimidating.<br \/>\nWhile one person cannot change the societal and personal prejudices that might have an impact on the offers he or she is given, there are some steps that anyone can take for more fair and pleasant negotiations.<br \/>\n<strong>1. Choose to negotiate<\/strong><br \/>\nSimply choosing to engage in negotiation is half the battle, which is something many people do not do. Most employers are not going to offer you the highest salary they are willing to pay you, and will make an offer based on the assumption that you will be negotiating for more. In cases where you accept the initial offer, employers are happy to keep the savings while still hiring the employee they want.<br \/>\n<strong>2. Know what you are worth<\/strong><br \/>\nMany people do not negotiate salaries or hourly wages because they are unaware of what would be considered a fair asking price for their expertise. This is something that you can remedy by doing your research ahead of time. Look for other job offers for similar positions and see what constitutes a normal salary or wage. You may even be able to find published lists of average salaries within your industry. Use this as a starting point to calculate your request.<br \/>\n<strong>3. Establish your BATNA<\/strong><br \/>\nAlways know what your Best Alternative to the Negotiated Agreement (BATNA) is. If you are currently employed, it may be your current position. If not, it could mean other job offers you receive, returning to school or long-term travel opportunities. The key is to know what your next best choice is, and how much it is worth to you. Judge its value both in monetary terms and in personal terms. This will help keep you from settling for an option that will leave you less satisfied.<br \/>\n<strong>4. Make your case<\/strong><br \/>\nOften, when applying for jobs, we only include a 1 or 2 page r\u00e9sum\u00e9 and a brief cover letter. While this allows you to present your best skills and experience clearly and concisely, it also means that potential employers do not know everything about you. If you have unlisted skills and experience that would add value to the organization you are applying to, you need to speak up before agreeing on your terms of employment. This is the perfect time to mention that you manage the finances for your church, you have served as an interpreter in another language, or any additional information you can link to success on the job.<br \/>\n<strong>5. Negotiate in person<\/strong><br \/>\nNegotiate in person or at least over the phone. This way there is a dialogue in which you can respond to \u201ccounter offers\u201d by suggesting other things that you would take in lieu of your first request. For example, if an employer is not willing to meet your salary request, you can ask for more vacation time, or training sessions paid by the company. Yet if you are requesting these things over email, keep in mind that sending a list of all the things you want, though they may be perfectly sensible requests, could come off as pushy or overly entitled.<br \/>\n<strong>6. Know what is most important to you<\/strong><br \/>\nDo not get hung up on \u201cwinning\u201d the negotiation. Remember what things are most important for you to obtain from your potential job and try to focus on getting these, as opposed to the highest dollar amount possible. If you value the experience or benefits you might receive from the position, do not throw it away because you were unable to get your new employer to budge from the initial salary offer.<br \/>\n<strong>7. Keep the door open for future negotiations<\/strong><br \/>\nIn most cases, this will not be the last interaction, or even negotiation you have with your potential employer. For this reason it is important to keep things as polite and amicable as possible. Focus on what you have to offer, and you will often come to a win-win agreement, or realize that there are better options available to you. You might not get everything you want in this negotiation, but if you allow yourself to be rude or focus on getting a better deal than your potential employer, you are setting yourself up for an uphill battle in future negotiations.<br \/>\nThese tips cannot guarantee a successful negotiation, but are meant to encourage productive and mutually beneficial agreements. Using these tips will also reduce the chances of you being steamrolled into taking the first offer that comes your way. It is also important to remember that you can apply these principles to all types of negotiation, including pay raise discussions, automotive purchases, or even personal agreements.<\/p>\n<p><strong>References<\/strong><br \/>\nBabcock, L., &amp; Laschever, S.
