Effective Compensation Strategies for Your Organization (Optional pre-workshop)
This optional add-on to the 2010 Western North American Roundtable is a great way to evaluate and reassess an organization’s compensation policies and practices. The guest presenter will share a brief review of the overall trends in base compensation, incentive pay and benefits, and what has changed since the economic crisis. This brief workshop will also explore how to meet the needs of five generations in the workplace under a tight budget. The presenter will also provide suggested solutions to difficult compensation questions that employers might face within their organization.
Using the foundation of the AgCareers.com’s salary survey, the Compensation Benchmark Review and other reliable compensation resources, participants will review compensation solutions to stay competitive within the industry and retain key employees. Participants in the Compensation Benchmark Review may add this workshop on for $99, while those not participating in the Compensation Benchmark Review can add this workshop onto their Roundtable registration for $150. For those not attending the Roundtable, the cost is $250. * Please note: Minimum 15 participants
The AgCareers.com Compensation Benchmark Review is an online tool that generates reports on salary and benefits data for more than 100 positions within agriculture and food. To become a participant of the Compensation Benchmark Review email compensation@agcareers.com.
