AAUW Work Smart in Long Beach at the YMCA of Greater Long Beach (Aug. 22)

Women working full time in the United States typically are paid just 80 percent of what men are paid, a gap of 20 percent — and it’s even wider for black women, Latinas, and Native women.

Attend this FREE salary negotiation workshop to gain the skills and confidence to successfully negotiate your salary and benefits packages.

In this two-hour workshop, you will gain confidence in your negotiation style through facilitated discussion and role-play and learn

• How to identify and articulate your personal value
• How to develop an arsenal of persuasive responses and other negotiation strategies
• How to conduct objective market research to benchmark a target salary and benefits
• About the wage gap, including its long-term consequences

This workshop is sponsored by Wells Fargo and coordinated by AAUW Long Beach.
