Trends in compensation are also discussed such as competition, age and cultural differences, customer-focused service, and productivity. Packed with tools - checklists, sample work plans, sample forms, job analysis questionnaires, salary surveys, personnel policies, sample spreadsheets, case studies, and FAQs - this one of a kind guide will help you take a proactive approach in rewarding the best and brightest while capitalizing on your organization's strategic goals.
