• Working with boards, committees and management on executive governance and providing education on trends, new processes and regulations affecting executive compensation to assist an organization in effectively managing its fiduciary responsibility.
• Performing comprehensive, whole-organization reviews of compensation programs, including salary structure, variable/incentive compensation and job titling/leveling to ensure standardization through growth, after M&A and over time.
