Tomorrow’s Webcast: “The Top Compensation Consultants Speak”
– Broc Romanek
Tune in tomorrow for the webcast – “The Top Compensation Consultants Speak” – to hear Mike Kesner of Deloitte Consulting, Blair Jones of Semler Brossy and Ira Kay of Pay Governance “tell it like it is. . . and like it should be.” The jam-packed agenda includes:
1. Pay ratio – last minute items
2. The tax reform bill eliminates the 162(m) exemption – what impact will that have on executive pay design, structure and governance (e.g., salaries and positive discretion on incentive payouts)?
3. Calculation of existing performance awards under tax reform
4. Director pay is continuing to get additional attention from the proxy advisors and the plaintiff’s bar. What will this attention mean for how director pay is structured & administered?
5. Clawbacks aren’t just for restatements anymore. What is the latest thinking on applying clawbacks to a broader range of activities and a broader population?
6. Goal-setting and performance adjustments remain major discussion points at the C-suite level: what are some best practices that can be helpful in this regard?
7. Investors, the SEC and proxy advisors are all still looking for the best way to assess pay & performance? What is the best thinking about how companies can kick the tires around their own pay & performance?
