UPDATE:  Something to keep in mind:

When Deepak Malhotra, co-author of the brilliant Negotiation Genius, taught business students at Northwestern’s Kellogg School of Management, he required each one to “go negotiate something in the real world” and write a report about it.  As Babcock and Laschever report in Women Don’t Ask,

• Of 45 students, 35 negotiated something for themselves and ten negotiated something for their employer;
• The average savings realized by students who negotiated on their own behalves was $2,200;
• The average savings realized by those who negotiated on behalf of their employers was a whopping $390,000;
• When asked what the most important negotiation tactic had been, the students said “choosing to negotiate at all.”
