Este es el segundo de dos partes Business English Pod series on how to ask for a pay raise.
Asking for a pay raise is a two-step process. Before any discussion of compensation begins, it’s important to state your case and demonstrate why you deserve a raise. Let your boss know of your achievements and your value to the company.
The second part involves negotiating. This is the time to start talking about specific numbers and benefits, but it must be handled diplomatically. You’ll need to outline what you want, acknowledge the other party’s concerns and bargain for the best deal.
En el ultimo episodio, we listened to Ryan, a salesman at an industrial supply company called Pylon, present his case to his boss, Jacob. Ryan pointed out that his relationship with Alliance Builders brought in more sales overall. He also took on some web design work in addition to his sales duties. Ahora, Ryan and Jacob are ready to start negotiating Ryan’s compensation.
Preguntas de escucha
1. How much does Ryan think he should receive for the web design work? Por qué?
2. Why can’t Jacob give Ryan the amount of money he wants?
3. What do Jacob and Ryan agree to in regard to Alliance Builders?

This is Ji from China. I am working for IBM China in the software
development lab.
A few days ago, I signed a trial account on BussinessEnglishPod.com, y
immediately found that it is absolutely the best professional English
learning site that I’d ever seen and experienced. The contents are
comprehensive and can’t be closer to the needs of speakers with English as a
second language.
Among the categories, I am very interested in the vocabulary section and
some of them are exactly meeting my requirement. I really appreciate this
great site that you created.
Here I just have one small suggestion. The poll on the vocabulary topic list
is good, but unfortunately the “Arte” is missing, which my wife is interested
most, as an editor of Art magazine. It would be great if you could consider
to add this topic into the future lessons.
gracias de nuevo, for your excellent site.
Awesome Podcast! Thanks and keep it coming.
