What is our work worth?

It is hard to really see what the services your provide are worth.  When was the last time you thought about this in a way that was removed from a pay scale set by others?  Do you know what you have of value to offer in the workplace and what is a fair price for that contribution.  Below is a link and an extract from a HBR blog by Whitney Johnson.

We all want to get paid what we believe we are worth, which may be even more than what we currently estimate. The trick then is to lead with unique or disruptive skills, offering the hard-won skills as a kicker. When you know exactly what your value proposition is, rather than perpetually trading at a discount, you'll command the premium you deserve.
