Executive and Board Compensation Plans and Organizational Culture
The goal is to better align pay with performance and develop an organizational culture that lays a greater emphasis on performance rather than tenure. For example, Arcus’s research of best practices in pay for performance models indicates that 75 percent of board directors agree that the design and implementation of their executive pay for performance compensation systems needs to be improved to be more effective.
In addition to compensation systems, it is also important to include mechanisms such as ongoing monitoring of decisions and outcomes to ensure that pay for performance systems deliver against goals defined by the board of directors.
