Equity is not the only way to attract and retain key talent. For private and closely held companies, an effective strategy starts with a clear compensation philosophy, reliable market data and programs aligned with business goals.
Join BPM and Executive Benefit Solutions for Beyond Equity: Strategies to Attract, Reward, and Retain Key Talent, where we’ll cover how to:
- Develop a compensation philosophy and benchmark pay against the market
- Structure competitive compensation and incentive programs
- Evaluate non-equity options, including phantom stock, performance units and supplemental executive retirement plans (SERPs)
- Address Section 409A, tax deferral and compliance considerations
Walk away with a practical framework for building compensation and retention programs that reward key employees without automatically turning to equity.
