The executive rewards and governance landscape is increasingly complex. Companies need effective reward programmes to attract key talent, motivate appropriate performance, and create an alignment with business imperatives and other talent strategies.
At the same time, scrutiny abounds from shareholders, proxy advisors, governments, and the media. Organisations need to ensure that executive pay is robust, well-articulated and aligned with performance and appropriate risk management.
Mercer | Kepler’s Executive Reward consultants are trusted advisors to listed and unlisted companies, not-for-profit, governmental and professional organisations advising senior management, remuneration committees, boards of directors and private equity houses. Our professionals provide best-in-class expertise in the areas of executive and director remuneration and benefits, pay-performance alignment, and corporate governance to meet the unique challenges facing our clients.
Attracting, engaging and retaining senior executives in a competitive talent market is a challenge for many organisations. In this context, we partner with clients to design incentives that are motivating and appropriate for their particular market.
This means tailoring incentives to strategy, culture and operating model, and the wider employment value proposition. It also means creating models to ensure outcomes are defensible in a wide range of performance outcomes. Finally, the plans we design need to take into account the market context, affordability and the expectations of shareholders, regulators and other stakeholders.
