CFO Series: Design Incentive Compensation Plans That Work!

CPE Credit:

Overview

Description:
Incentive plans change behavior, but do they really incentivize the performance we want? This seminar will examine incentive plans to see which ones work and which do not. We will also examine difficult issues, such as what happens when we have upper and lower limits on incentives. How do we recognize performance in divisions facing different challenges? Sadly, too many incentive plans do not achieve the intended goals. Learn from the many mistakes made by others so your incentive plans will work as planned!
