A rare employee does not sweat palms at the thought of going into the director's office. And if it comes to the fact that the director will have to ask for something, then it dries up in the mouth and all the words are forgotten. However, if you are determined and want to ask for a salary increase, get ready, think over your speech and go boldly.

Step 1
Employee motivation is critical to the success of a business. Every competent leader should understand this. It is necessary to raise salaries or pay bonuses at least once a year, otherwise you risk losing a valuable employee, which means there is a direct risk of losses. If, for some reason, the authorities do not even think about increasing wages, then there is nothing wrong with asking for an increase yourself. This process requires caution and delicacy, so first you need to practice.
Step 2
Most importantly, you need to be sure that you are truly worth the raise. And the reason for this is not “Ivanov was added, and why not?”, But the fact that you actually bring tangible benefits to the company and deserve a reward. If for yourself you honestly answered the question: "Am I worthy of the increase?" in the affirmative, you need to muster up the courage and go to the boss. Prepare in advance. Collect your work reports from the last year. Show what profit you have brought to the company. If possible, demonstrate the growth of the company's gross income with a chart or graph. If you have successfully completed business projects during this period, then mention them as well.
Step 3
Think in advance about what percentage of the increase you will ask for. Do not under any circumstances mention the salaries of other employees, do not ask to compare you "with Petrov, because you work even longer than him." How long you work for the firm doesn't matter at all. The main thing is the result of your work. And if you can convince management that you are a valuable employee, then it is likely to meet you halfway. Of course, you also need to be careful when choosing the time for such a conversation. The boss should not be busy, he should not be in a bad mood, and an important meeting should not be looming on his nose.
