Congratulations ! You Salary is Up by 12.5%

Recently you appeared for a job interview. After the interview, the HR Manager calls to offer you the job.
HR informs you the salary, and is 12.5% higher than your existing salary. The manager further informs you that in addition to salary this job has other benefits, which are generous too.
He does not have the time to meet up to discuss the terms right now. The HR Manager wants to know if you are going to accept this job offer.
As you really want this job, you can say yes now and meet him to discuss the details tomorrow. What do you tell him?

Negotiation is an important life skill

We negotiate most of our waking hours. We negotiate with our team members, colleagues, bosses and vendors at work, with our kids, spouse and parents at home. We negotiate during buying or selling of an asset e.g. house, car and also conflict resolution and during salary negotiations. Negotiation is an important life skill and it contributes to our success.

If we do not negotiate well or don’t negotiate at all then there is a big chance that we are going to leave money on the table, which could have been ours. We often don’t negotiate because we feel it is inappropriate or feel uncomfortable and fear it.

“You don't get what you deserve. You get what you negotiate.” Chester Karrass
