Negotiation is defined as a back-and-forth process in which two or more people with different interests try to find a way to reconcile or compromise to come up with an agreement. Unfortunately, and quite often, many women struggle at the negotiation table because they don’t know what is possible, or how to ask to reach that agreement.
Based on more than seven years of research and hundreds of negotiations, Kathryn Valentine has created a proven approach to negotiating successfully as a woman. In this session she will outline the benefits of negotiating and barriers that can hold women back. She will share her research-based solution that empowers women to advocate for themselves without risking backlash.
Kathryn Valentine is the Founder of Worthmore Strategies, a consulting firm focused on achieving gender parity in the workplace by empowering women to ask for what they need to be happy, productive, and successful in their careers. Her work has been featured in Fast Company, Adweek, Working Mother and Forbes.
Kathryn graduated from the University of Virginia, where she was a Jefferson Scholar and Lawn Resident, beginning her career at McKinsey. She has an MBA from the Kellogg School of Management. Kathryn currently lives in Atlanta with her husband and their two sons. She enjoys running, reading and burning everything she tries to cook.
