We do offer consultation through the process. There's all sorts of information about us at www.primegenesis.com
My feeling is that your pre-boarding conversations should be held one-on-one as much as possible. The primary purpose of these is building relationships. And the strongest relationships are built one-on-one.
I think this book can save a lot of people the headache of accepting positions that are doomed for failure. If only I had read this book before I accepted my last position my resume would look much better. After only 13 months on this last job I realized I was in a no-win situation. Thanks to you guys, it won't happen again.
Hi George,
Great book! I am currently in the Negotiating stages with multiple firms and I have found your book very useful. 1 Question:
You talk about setting your levels for salaries, opening, walkaway, etc. How do you know what the company's levels is on those items?
Thank
I'm making a significant move within a Fortune 10 company -- moving into a leadership role. It's a much bigger role than the one I'm currently in. Something in your book was intriguing to me. How do I find out the inside contenders for the position that was awarded to me -- those who might be peers, direct reports or from other areas of the business? Also how do I find out if any of the key stakeholders disagreed on the responsibilities of this position?
