Should You Take a Pay Cut for Growth? Part 2: The Trade-Off Test

Описание: If you’ve ever stared at a job offer thinking, “This could grow my career… but can I really take the pay cut?” this video is for you.

In Part 2 of this framework, we’ll unpack The Trade-Off Test, a practical method for mapping exactly what you’d be gaining and giving up when a new opportunity comes with a smaller paycheck.

You’ll learn how to:
💡 Evaluate the real value of energy, purpose, and skill growth, not just salary numbers
⚖️ Balance financial trade-offs against long-term career optionality
🔄 Assess the “reversibility” of your move and see if you could pivot back if it doesn’t work out
🎯 Negotiate smarter with strategies that protect your income and your growth

We’ll walk through real client examples showing how this framework helped professionals make confident, strategic decisions, whether that meant saying yes, not yet, or let’s negotiate.

If you missed Part 1 (Timeline, Trajectory, and Alignment Tests), you can find it on my channel. It’s the foundation for today’s discussion.
