 Reviews
from prominent compensation and governance experts:"A terrific resource for anyone with an interest in executive compensation. The authors are the leading experts. A much needed book." - Professor Edward E. Lawler III, Marshall School of Business, University of Southern California. "For all those interested in Executive Compensation—be they HR professionals, CEOs, members of Compensation Committees or current or aspiring executives—this book is current, understandable and thorough; bringing needed perspective to this important but often maligned and misunderstood topic." - John Hillins, Senior Director, Human Resources (Retired) Amgen "Executive Compensation: The Professional's Guide to Current Issues & Practices provides a most comprehensive and thoughtful overview of all major subjects in today's executive compensation field. It is a compendium of work by the field's earliest, best and brightest practitioners and is a must read for anyone working in the area. It will not only emerge as a great resource but a reference that will prove invaluable for years to come." - Charles M. Elson, Director, John L. Weinberg Center for Corporate Governance, University of Delaware "This new publication contains a wealth of information on the issues and actions involved in specific and diverse situations: from an analysis of regulatory changes, and the role of the compensation committee, to designing corporate & business unit plans; from pre-IPO and high-growth companies to divestitures and spin-offs. Woven through it all is the message that needs to be heard: the rules and expectations have changed, and the opportunities for well-trained compensation professionals to distinguish themselves have never been better." - William T. (Tim) Haigh, Managing Director, W.T. Haigh & Company, Inc. Information, Trends & Answers Executive Compensation: The Professional’s Guide To Current Issues & Practices provides the ready-reference needed to follow the recent changes and their impact, and to answer today’s mandate for new solutions; for innovative, competitive pay packages; for good governance practices; and for anticipating and preparing for the challenges that are on the horizon—all while operating within an environment of tight budgets and staffing constraints. Drawing from such leading compensation advisory firms as Frederic W. Cook & Co., Pearl Meyer & Partners, Mercer, Towers Perrin, Watson Wyatt, Clark Consulting, Hay, and others, the Series Editors of Executive Compensation assembled the most distinguished group of top practitioners and experts in the field to provide the insights, information, and tools you need to navigate within the new era of accountability and performance standards. > Consultants and in-house designers will find the latest thinking, as well as detailed examples of programs that have worked, those that have failed, and why. > Executives will find sample executive agreements provided and discussed in depth, as well as important coverage of topics such as trends in deferred compensation, options and restricted stock. > Complete presentation of the impact of recent changes on each of the executive pay elements: salary, executive benefits and incentives. > Board and Compensation committee members will find a separate chapter of directly-pertinent coverage, as well as a detailed index facilitating quick reference to all key terminology and a discussion of each. > Each chapter opens with an introduction from the Series Editors; Mike Davis, Co-Chairman of World at Work and Jerry Edge, Past President of the American Compensation Association. > Two entire sections—10 chapters—are devoted to advanced and special topics that are likely to be encountered. > The accompanying CD provides templates, sample documents and checklists. |
