In November of 2012, I had the good fortune to participate in a webinar sponsored by My Purchasing Center called Purchasing Salaries–What They Are and How to Negotiate Them. Along with friend and professional colleague, Dr. Harry Hough, President of the American Purchasing Society , we advised an audience of about 200 on how to learn about salary information and negotiate better offers. Dr. Hough led off the one hour event with an overview of the Society’s Annual Salary Survey conducted with a large national sample. He spoke of the powerful influence of education and training as the surest and quickest path to higher earnings.

I followed up with specific advice on how to view and manage the job search as a live negotiation laboratory. Throughout our talks, we took as many questions as time permitted in the one hour event. The entire recording is available in MP3 format.
