Prepare managers for the emotional load executive compensation packages places on them.
Designing Comprehensive Compensation Packages for Executive Leadership
An applied course in executive compensation packages built around the decisions practitioners actually face.
Course Overview
People decide what executive compensation packages really means by watching who gets promoted. Data on this strand of people management and development is abundant; insight about it is not. The material serves both public bodies and commercial organisations dealing with the people management and development discipline. They gain the ability to sequence improvements to executive compensation packages in an order their organisation can absorb. The course sets out a working method for this part of people management and development that participants can apply the week they return. Where the wider people management and development agenda is measured, it improves; where it is only discussed, it drifts. Exercises escalate in difficulty, ending with the ambiguous situations that make executive compensation packages hard in practice. Progress on the people management and development discipline is usually lost in the gap between approval and execution. The closing exercise tests whether the participant's plan for this part of people management and development survives a hostile question.
