Organizational Citizenship Behavior continues to be essential to a positive workplace, regardless of where the work takes place. Just as individuals have had to adapt to work in a virtual setting, so must organizations adapt when it comes to their recognition and reward systems. In addition, stepping up communication, feedback and acknowledgement throughout the organization can go a long way toward fostering organizational effectiveness, employee well-being and a positive culture. https://lnkd.in/gSd82BWy #organizationaldevelopment #organizationalbehavior #leadershipdevelopment

**Empowering Women** One of my talented lady doctors was offered a side gig this week and I was sooo thankful she asked me for financial advice. The hospital low balled her BIG time. Negotiation isn't just a skill; it's a superpower, especially for women. Yet, many women often hesitate to ask for what they deserve. It's time to change that narrative. 🔹 **Know Your Worth**: Confidence stems from understanding your value. Research your market rate, highlight your accomplishments, and approach negotiations with a clear picture of your contributions. 🔹 **Preparation is Key**: Equip yourself with facts, figures, and a solid understanding of your role's impact. Preparation not only boosts confidence but also positions you as a formidable negotiator. 🔹 **Practice Makes Perfect**: Rehearse your negotiation strategy with a mentor or trusted colleague. Role-playing different scenarios can help you respond effectively and stay composed under pressure. Anticipate in advance how they may respond. 🔹 **Leverage Emotional Intelligence**: Understanding the needs and motivations of the other party can create a collaborative rather than adversarial atmosphere. Aim for win-win outcomes that benefit both sides. Let's encourage and support each other to speak up, negotiate fearlessly, and close the gender gap in all professional arenas. 💪 #WomenInNegotiation #Empowerment #CareerGrowth #NegotiationSkills https://lnkd.in/gSuCkekp
