You’re missing the patterns that cost you money.

Companies know their budget, timeline, and alternatives before you walk in the room. You make career-defining decisions with incomplete information. Every year, that gap costs senior leaders six and seven figures in compensation they never knew was on the table.

Execs and the City is the intelligence that closes the gap.

Every Thursday: compensation strategy, negotiation leverage, and the patterns behind how senior leaders get paid, positioned, and promoted — from the only agent representing top executives at the negotiating table.

What you’ll learn:

  • Why the best offer you’ll ever get is the one you haven’t seen yet

  • The leverage most executives don’t know they have — until it’s gone

  • How to turn interviews into collaborative planning sessions

  • The psychology behind promotions, compensation, and hiring decisions

  • The patterns that separate seven-figure exits from six-figure ceilings

Read free every Thursday.


Inside the paywall: The real scripts senior leaders use to negotiate millions in additional compensation, the strategy behind why those scripts work, and anonymous case studies with play-by-play breakdowns of the deals behind the headlines. Plus direct access to JacobGPT for real-time compensation and career questions — the same intelligence I bring to my private clients, available the moment you need it.
