One pass. Three tools.

  1. 01

    Conversation Builder

    Turn a workplace problem into three lines you can say out loud: an opening, a boundary and a pause. Prepare for a workload conversation, a micromanager’s check-ins or a request that needs a clear limit.

  2. 02

    Raise & Promotion Case

    Build a one-page case around your responsibilities and contributions. Get word-for-word responses to “there’s no budget” and “you’re not ready yet,” so you can ask for a concrete next step.

  3. 03

    Boss Pushback Practice

    Choose a manager type and rehearse the conversation while it pushes back. Practice responding to objections before you have the real conversation with your boss.

Conversation Builder example

A boss negotiation script for a micromanager

Negotiate the working arrangement, not your boss’s personality. Ask for a clear standard and agreed check-in times.

Your boss says

“Send me every draft before it goes out. I need to see everything.”

Opening
I want to agree on what done looks like before I start, so you’re not redoing it after.
Boundary
Hourly check-ins slow the work down. Can we do one review at midday and one at end of day?
Pause
If the first draft misses the mark, tell me exactly what to change and I’ll own the fix.

Sample wording. Your script is built from the situation you enter.

Upper Hand conversation on a phone, preparing a response to a micromanager

When your boss says “there’s no budget”

Bring your expanded responsibilities and specific contributions to the raise conversation. The Raise & Promotion Case helps organize that evidence into one page and prepare your response.

“If a raise isn’t possible this quarter, what criteria do I need to meet, and what date can we put on the calendar to review compensation?”

Example response, not a promise of a raise.

Pass details

Is $27 a subscription?
No. It is one payment in US dollars for 60 days of access. There are no recurring fees and no automatic renewal.
When do my 60 days start?
Your pass starts when your payment is confirmed. All three tools are available during that access period.
What happens when my pass ends?
Paid tool access ends. You are not charged again. If you want another 60 days, you can choose to buy another pass.
Can I try a boss negotiation script before paying?
Yes. Your first Conversation Builder script is free, with no card required. The pass unlocks further scripts, Raise & Promotion Case and Boss Pushback Practice.
Can I keep my work?
Your profile keeps your role, and your scripts and cases save to your account. You can return to saved work while preparing your next conversation.
Does the pass guarantee a raise or a different boss response?
No. Upper Hand helps you prepare your words and practice your response. Your employer makes its own decisions about pay, promotions and working arrangements.
