In this episode, we cover the following topics:

  • What’s an appropriate amount of money to grant for a raise
  • How to deal with the emotions that come up for you when a team member asks for more money
  • The factors that should go into determining a raise for a teacher or admin in your school
  • A clever “hack” that Daniel uses to determine job roles, compensation, and benefits to give your team
  • How to depressurize the “raise” conversation
  • The format of the conversation when you talk to an employee about money
  • A half-dozen questions that you can ask your employee to determine their yearly objectives (that play into the payment conversation)
  • How Nate took a potentially disastrous conversation with 3 key teachers and turned it into an opportunity for team building… and what you can take away from this situation
  • How to set hours and pay for “support” team members… like a marketing manager or other team leadership role
