“A company outperforms rivals only if it establishes a difference it can preserve”. Compensation strategies, though complex to devise and challenging to maintain, remain the key factor in organizations’ building and retaining its competitive edge. Designing Reward Systems aims to build an understanding of how compensation and reward systems can be designed, evolved and aligned to reinforce contemporary organizational strategies.

This 3-days in-depth program introduces how to utilize compensation systems to align the activities of workforce with the strategic direction of the business. Through a blended and hands-on approach, we examine the criteria used to compensate employees, compensation system design procedures, and the challenges that managers face in the 21st century. Most importantly the program is designed to stimulate brainstorming on managing motivation to drive performance.

 

 

During the program, the participants; 

  • Understand the components of a compensation system
  • Understand the steps to build effective variable pay systems
  • Learn how to build a point plan and a job grading system to create internal equity
  • Understand the components of wage survey
  • Learn how reward planning can be used to cut compensation costs

 

 

 

This program is designed for executives and managers who want to become proficient in managing compensation and rewards and are looking for tools and concepts to achieve this goal. The program would be especially beneficial for HR managers and HR business partners who want to acquire knowledge in the field of compensation and rewards management.  

This program is also suitable for functional managers who want to acquire an in-depth knowledge of rewards and incentives to motivate their workforce. The managers who are familiar with the technical aspects of compensation and benefits, and who wish to acquire a bird’s-eye view on strategic rewards may also seek benefits from this program.
