Program Details:

In response to the great deal of attention on the topic of executive incentives, employers have been increasingly focused on how to design effective incentive programs and how to evaluate the effectiveness of those incentives. Many continue to struggle with how to demonstrate the effectiveness of the company’s incentive program to key stakeholders, who are questioning whether the measures are “good” or “bad” for the company.

This program will include a review of recent trend data on the prevalence of incentives in the market place, particularly among executives. Key elements to consider when creating effective incentives will be identified. The program will look at best practices for designing incentives, including factors that could be used, what behaviors these measures will create and the impact of the incentives on the company. This program will also help you to determine how to assess the “risks” in the metrics as well as the governance processes for overseeing the incentive pay plans.
