The Pay & Proxy Podcast: Trends in Executive Pay Votes in 2023
As you look ahead to garnering support for your 2024 compensation-related proposals, this new 17-minute episode of “The Pay & Proxy Podcast” will help set you up for success. I spoke with Brian Myers & Heather Marshall of WTW’s Executive Compensation and Board Advisory practice about the meaning behind 2023 voting trends and what you should be doing right now to avoid negative (and possibly embarrassing) results. They cover:
– Trends and process & disclosure improvements impacting say-on-pay results in the 2023 season
– The importance of telling your compensation story
– The most common reasons for say-on-pay opposition
– Heightened scrutiny of equity plan share requests
– Why you need to be thoughtful about managing burn rate
– The year-round process for success: Prepare, engage & disclose
