Okay, let’s tackle this. So Joan has a broad range of skills, including negotiation, project management, and team building. While these skills are valuable, they are also quite common. Location is St Paul, Minnesota, which is not a major hub for high-paying industries. Considering her skills and location, I would estimate her rate to be on the lower side of the scale. A rough estimate for a project manager in the US with similar skills is around $75–$125 per hour. Given her language skills, she might be able to command a slightly higher rate, but I wouldn’t go much higher than $100 per hour. Some project managers with similar experience and skills in major cities might average $150–$250 per hour. So, I’ll estimate around $100.
