Evolving from base pay to variable rewards is a significant cultural change in any organization. To do this right, not only must the variable program be designed appropriately, but a number of organizational culture and “environmental” issues must be studied, addressed and resolved — all within a structured framework. Only with this approach can a new variable reward program achieve success. Rubino shows you how to evolve away from base pay “rewards” and presents a structured, step-by-step process to successfully design, implement and communicate organizational-wide variable rewards. You will leave with a pragmatic variable rewards template that can be tailored to your organization, as well as a working document that will help you design and implement a plan that works.
