Hello Dave, there is one point i don't agree with you and its the "what promotion is about". A worker who seeks a promotion is confident in his performence,which consists of high productivity or gaining new skills in his field.You wouldn't even consider a promotion for a worker who is average or below. That being said, i think a promotion is mainly a "reward" or acknowledgement of progrress and good work ethic. Thats why i disagree with the "must get value out of a promotion".Its greedy to want even more profit from a valuable employee,unless the promotion/raise is high enough to demand additional value.
The comment about "greed" is judgmental. It is the prerogative of the business owner to make as much money as he/she wants. In fact, a business exists to make a profit for its owners. That's the way it works. People who deliver more value get the promotions and make more money.
Nice video ! I suggest that you make a video on how to ask for a employment contract renewal in the presence of multiple generous job offers on the other side ! How to politely ask for a salary raise and leverage the whole situation ... Thanks a lot
I've been on my job 6 years (nonprofit) and only have received a $1 raise. I love my job, im the best at what I do at my job. I've stared in a few promotional videos to help them raise money. I just want to know am I being unreasonable to want a raise? My employees are all amazing, supervisors show how much they appreciate you and they are genuine. 5 years in, we are just now receiving affordable health care. I could go work at Chik-fil-a and make more money than what I am now. That's not what I want to do. I really need advice.
