The world is changing. And the way we work is changing along with it. As we shift to more remote and hybrid work environments, the gig economy expands, and new generations replace baby boomers, an entirely different and novel definition of "workforce" emerges. No longer can organizations rely on the methods and techniques that worked in the past to continue delivering satisfactory results in the future. Modern workers increasingly demand a different sort of value proposition, one that recognizes their unique role in an ever-evolving economy.
The WorldatWork Handbook of Total Rewards delivers a definitive exploration of the role that compensation and rewards play in the new workplace. With a broadened scope that addresses virtually all modern employers, the book aims to tackle not only the problems of today, but those of the near future as well. The book offers readers a high-level overview of how compensation and rewards programs support the overall goals of attracting, retaining, motivating, and engaging the talent necessary for business success. It also provides practical and concrete strategies for implementing these ideals into a modern organization.
Readers will learn about market pricing and competition for prizewinning talent, how to link pay to performance with merit pay, issues surrounding executive compensation disclosures, how to compensate sales staff, how to reskill your workforce through continuous development, and the changing face of employee well-being.
Perfect for anyone with an interest in human resources, The WorldatWork Handbook of Total Rewards will also earn a place in the libraries of managers, executives, business owners, and leaders who hope to motivate their followers and employees to contribute to a thriving and energetic organization.
