How do you negotiate a raise?

For the final ASAGE event of the year, we gathered at the Four Seasons Hôtel des Bergues in Geneva to discuss a negotiation case prepared by Giuseppe Conti, our negotiation expert and founder of CABL.

During this masterclass, participants attended a lecture on the fundamentals of negotiation before getting hands-on experience with a real-world case study. It was an opportunity for each participant to reinforce what they had learned and ask our expert questions directly.

Salary negotiations are a sensitive topic that many employees find difficult to broach—or evenavoid altogether. Giuseppe shared his strategies for preparing effectively for this challenging process and coming out on top.

Once this introductory session was over, we were able to put the methods Giuseppe had presented into practice through a case study. Divided into pairs consisting of a boss and an employee, we were able to test our ability to persuade and secure the desired pay raise.

We gathered over some delicious cocktails to chat and share our thoughts. Once again, this workshop was a success. We hope to see you next year for a series of events just as spectacular as this year’s.

We would like to thank Giuseppe Conti, expert negotiator and founder of CABL; Stéphane Lury, President of ASAGE; Lionel Perez, founder of ASAGE and founder of the Harvard Negotiation Club; and Rebecca Hababou for this wonderful event.

A big thank you to the Four Seasons Hôtel des Bergues for hosting us.
