Over the past two decades, nearly all employees, from executives and salespeople, to the broader population, have seen their pay-at-risk opportunities increase. There is good reason for this trend; incentive plans, well designed and implemented, are compelling management tools. Specifically, a model incentive plan design is attractive because it clearly identifies organizational priorities, serves as a talent attraction and retention tool, manages fixed payroll expenses, and shares success appropriately with those responsible for results.

However, many organizations simply do not design or execute their incentive plans well. Too often variable compensation opportunities morph into deferred salary, or at the other end of the spectrum, discourage employees with unrealistic or unclear expectations.

This session will diagnose the most common pitfalls in incentive design and implementation and present a practical path forward to improve effectiveness and help organizations earn a better return on their incentive pay investments. Using real company designs and examples, the speakers will show how to mitigate plan risks and the impact it can have on organizations. The ideas and frameworks covered in this presentation are transferrable across all company sizes and ownership structures, employee populations, and industries. Join Jason Adwin, Vice President and Consultant with Sibson Consulting, and Emma Browning, Consultant with Sibson Consulting, as they cover effective plan management techniques for:
•Selecting performance metrics and weightings
•Determining incentive opportunities and upside
•Rewarding the best and brightest employees
•Managing plan complexity
•Ensuring effective plan implementation
