Compensation Philosophy Facilitation
Craft a formal statement of your company's position on employee compensation. Our consultants will guide your team through the process and help you develop a compensation philosophy statement that explains the "how and why" behind employee pay and creates a framework for consistency that helps you attract, retain, and motivate employees.

The Competitive Environment:
Everyone wants the best talent, but that doesn’t mean they want the same talent. It’s important to define:
1) Who you’re competing with – which other employers?
2) Who you’re competing for – what talent?
Lead, lag, or match:
Are you going to lead, lag, or match the market? All three approaches have a time and place. We’ll help you figure out which one is right for your organization, in your industry, at this time.
Total Compensation Mix:
How will you weigh the combination of base salary, bonuses, commissions, and other forms of compensation that make up an employee's total pay package?
Linking Pay to Performance:
What percentage of pay will be variable and linked to performance? The optimal mix will vary greatly depending on the nature of the work, industry, and employees.
Your Pay Philosophy is a guide, not a rigid ruleset. It’s intended to orientate decision-making, not override practical realities for a given role or circumstance.
Together, we’ll partner with you to develop a Pay Philosophy that is dynamic, flexible, and entirely appropriate for your unique circumstances.
