Proactive Planning for Employee Compensation
Duration: 60 minutes
Speaker: Sam Reeve
Webinar Description
Most compensation professionals are forced into a reactive mode for nearly everything they do. From last-minute changes to unrealistic timelines, it’s a difficult job to execute efficiently and effectively on a daily basis.
In this training webinar, join compensation experts Sam Reeve and Dan Walter of Performensation as they show that nearly everything you normally do can be proactively planned and executed, leaving far more time for the two most important aspects of your job:
1) Fighting fires and unexpected issues.
2) Spending a bit more time away from work with friends and family (YES; we just said that!).
Key Takeaways:
- How to break down the events and tasks required each year, every six months, each quarter, month, week and more
- How to evaluate virtually everything done in the compensation department from the perspective of efficiency and workflow.
- How to interact better with all of your stakeholders and take advantage of the cycles of their calendars to get more done in less time.
Agenda
- Compensation Planning is about far more than your annual increase percentage and executive compensation updates
- When should you train yourself? When should you train your staff and stakeholders?
- You can structure performance appraisals to be more effective with less work
- Variable pay planning requires data analysis and an understanding of business strategy and goals that starts long before you start talking about dollars and cents
- Smooth out your work flow through efficient scheduling to reduce spikes in work
- Use “slow times” to advance your cause. You can only gain ground when the avalanche chasing you is at its slowest
- Seasonal vs. Calendar Schedules. Using off-cycle planning to help reduce overlap, overwork and errors
Logistics
- 60 minutes (Travel Free) delivered over the Internet.
- Unlimited listeners per connection - bring the entire department.
