About this session

Asking for a raise can feel uncomfortable, high stakes, and easy to get wrong. This MentorCruise session is designed to help you approach that conversation with more clarity, confidence, and a real plan. Whether you're preparing for a performance review, stepping into a bigger role, or realizing your compensation no longer reflects your value, this session gives you practical support on how to make your case effectively.

You’ll work with an experienced mentor to clarify your positioning, highlight your impact, and prepare for the conversation itself. Together, you can shape your narrative, practice your ask, and think through how to handle questions, objections, or alternative offers. The goal is not just to ask for more, but to do it in a way that feels thoughtful, credible, and aligned with your long-term career growth.

Your mentor

Salary negotiation is a skill most professionals are never taught... and it shows.

Over 15+ years building a career across multiple countries, companies, and compensation structures, I've learned how to position value, navigate difficult conversations, and advocate effectively in environments where the answer isn't always straightforward.

At Microsoft, I operate in a global, performance-driven culture where compensation is tied to demonstrated impact, market positioning, and internal visibility and I've helped many professionals in my network think through and win these conversations.

My approach is direct and pressure-tested. I'll help you assess whether your timing and case are actually strong, identify the evidence that moves the needle, and build a narrative your manager can champion.

We'll stress-test your reasoning, anticipate objections, and rehearse the real conversation so you're not improvising when it matters. I'm equally focused on what to do if the answer is no or not now, because how you respond in that moment shapes what happens next.

If you're serious about walking into that conversation prepared, this session will give you a concrete plan, sharper language, and the confidence to use it.
