Training Overview
Are your executives paid enough? Too much? Earn your Executive Compensation Certification.
Most organizations are wrestling with executive compensation plans in 2023. As executives demand higher pay to address inflation, a faltering economy and increasing interest rates put pressure on organizations to reduce costs. At the same time, social justice movements have shined a bright spotlight on pay inequity.
Executive compensation is one of the most powerful – and expensive – tools your organization has for driving performance, fostering alignment, creating accountability, and communicating priorities to stakeholders. It is subject to significant oversight by boards, in-depth public disclosure, and intense scrutiny by investors and government regulators. You must show your organization’s sound governance by responding to the concerns of stakeholders and avoiding this frequent lightning rod for criticism.
