At Harvard Business Review we are always looking for new ways to give you everything you need to lead from your first day to retirement day and

thinking about that first job, it brings all kinds of unique challenges

that keep changing as the work world changes. It is so different even from my first job and it's hard to know where to turn for

advice.

So I want to share an episode of HBR's newest podcast, New Here.

Think of it as the Young Professionals Guide to Building a

meaningful career on your own terms. It's hosted by my friend and colleague

Eleni Mata and covers everything from interviewing to difficult bosses or just how to decide

if corporate life is right for you.

And while new here is for young professionals, its lessons are definitely helpful for everyone.

When I heard their conversation about asking for a raise, I knew you could find it valuable too.

In this episode, Eleni speaks with author and personal finance expert Ann Lease Gada and author, career advisor, and past Ideacast guest Gorik Inge to get their recommendations.

Gorick and Anne Lees explain how to lay the groundwork,

when to start the conversation with your manager,

and how to navigate the negotiation that may follow.

So give it a listen, hope you enjoy.
