50% Raise, Self-Advocacy, and Informational Interviews with Sarah-Neel Smith, PhD and Jamie Lee

Sarah-Neel’s results speak for themselves:

✅ Pivot 1: Successfully transitioned from Academia to Private Investigations with a 7% salary increase.

✅ Pivot 2: Leveraged her momentum into a 50% pay increase in Philanthropy.

While I supported her through the negotiation and mindset shifts, Sarah-Neel generated these opportunities by mastering the art of strategic informational interviews.
