The Practitioner's Guide to Executive Rewards Communications

As public and media scrutiny of CEO pay continues unabated, organizations may be focusing on external communications to manage public perception when they should be equally focused, if not more so, on internal communications. WorldatWork, a global human resources association, has released a new tool to ensure successful internal communications dealing with executive pay. “The Practitioner's Guide to Executive Rewards Communications” is an interactive tool designed to assist executive rewards practitioners, or anyone who has to discuss pay with executives, in preparing for and conducting such complex discussions.

The tool helps users organize their talking points based on various pay elements, including: base pay, annual incentives, long-term incentives, nonqualified plans, perquisites and proxy data.

“Effective communication can help executives recognize their value to the organization, provide a sense of security and stability, and provide a better understanding of each pay element,” said Don Lindner, CCP, CBP, GRP, WorldatWork senior practice leader.  “From the organization’s perspective, good communication can potentially lead to increased engagement, productivity and stability in the leadership team.”
