of productivity and performance? Incentive-based compensation and other performance-based
pay programs are motivating employees to meet their goals which in turn drives
the company to new levels of success. We can help you examine how your employees

performance, Management by Objectives (MBO) bonuses, individual performance
or organization results?

and who receives that reward.

market share, growth, customer satisfaction)?
Which parts of the organization should be eligible for the incentive plan
and why? Who is eligible to participate?

total compensation package.
What are the payout provisions when a plan participant either meets or exceeds
goals? Does the new incentive plan have an effect on the existing base pay
structure?

employees.
Are plan participants intimately aware of how the plan works, when results
are reported and when the plan pays out? Do they know what they must do differently
to receive an award?
