15 Know Your Worth Quotes to Prime Yourself For Salary Negotiations
Do you know what’s the most valuable asset you have in life? It’s YOU. You are your biggest vehicle of progress. But you can also be your own biggest saboteur. How come?
Because many of us tend to diminish our own achievements and make our accomplishments seem insignificant or “lucky”. Some of us also hate to sound boastful and prefer “our work to speak for itself”.
But as Dr. Robin Pinkley, a management professor at Southern Methodist University’s Cox School of Business and a published author, points out this is the wrong mindset for salary negotiations.

AEMO Begins Cautious Lift of Australian Electricity Market Suspension
The Australian Energy Market Operator (AEMO) on June 22 initiated the first step to lift a suspension of its National Electricity Market (NEM), citing a “clear improvement in market conditions.”
The measure comes more than a week since it indefinitely suspended spot markets in all regions of its NEM, given critical power generation supply shortfalls that it had said made it “impossible to continue” operations under national electricity rules. Suspension of the NEM marked a dramatic step for the AEMO, which serves as an independent system operator (ISO) that operates the competitive market serving New South Wales, Queensland, South Australia, Victoria, and Tasmania.
While fuel supplies remain tight, more than 4,000 MW of generation is back online after outages, AEMO said on Wednesday. That paves the way for the operator to initiate a staged approach to lifting the market suspension, said AEMO CEO Daniel Westerman.

Unit 3 at Barakah Nuclear Plant Licensed, Set to Load Fuel
The third unit of the Barakah nuclear power plant (NPP), the first such facility in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and the Arab world, is ready to begin fuel loading, according to a statement issued by the country’s nuclear regulatory agency on June 19.
The Federal Authority for Nuclear Regulation (FANR) on Sunday said it would send inspectors to oversee the process, in order “to ensure the fuel load and testing processes are completed according to requirements.”
