Q: What is the KASH method, and how does it apply to career growth?

A: Highlight the depth and breadth of your expertise—industry insights, technical understanding, or business acumen. Demonstrating how your knowledge has directly contributed to better decisions, outcomes, or innovation makes a strong case for advancement.
Q: What role do attitudes play in negotiations?
