INTRODUCTION
Compensation And Total Rewards make up what we believe to be the most
professionally powerful, primary, persuasive, pervasive, and promising area of, and
approach to, Human Resource Management. But this is lost on many practitioners and
organizations steeped in old ways of doing things, and struggling to make themselves
relevant or impactful.
It is relatively well established that the value of Compensation And Total Rewards
make up one of the largest expenses of many organizations. More importantly, the
broader and more modern concept of Total Rewards (as defined by WorldatWork, the
leading global association of professionals in the subject matter area) present very
powerful and sustainable combination of means of influencing attitudes, behaviors,
contributions, and the delivery of results by employees, whilst aligning significantly
with shareholder and other stakeholder interests.
In recent years there has been a movement towards integration of the silos that once
constituted what is now called human resource management. One of the integrating
frameworks is that offered by the concept and practice of total rewards management.

COURSE TITLE
Local Cases
This course introduces participants to fundamentals of the world of “Total Rewards
Management”. However, in order to enhance the conceptual leap from “old” to the
“new” frames of reference, this presentation uses the term “Compensation and Total
Rewards Management”. “Compensation” is one of the familiar silos of old. “Total
Rewards” is a broader, newer term that includes compensation, but goes far beyond its
limiting confines. In certain sectors and locations, the concept of Total Rewards is
relatively new, or even quite foreign. As such, a reference to “compensation” is utilized,
even though we will soon see that it is but a small (albeit important) part of the whole.
PRACTICAL BEHAVIORAL OBJECTIVES & SKILLS
Upon active and diligent completion of this course, participants should be able to:
 Assess and make very important decisions for the individual pursuit of serious
structured technical professional development and investments, based on a
comprehensive introduction to fundamentals of the subject matter in what is
undoubtedly one of the hottest, most lucrative, and most solid specialties world-
wide in Human Resource Management
 Perform well-structured contextual analysis of ‘Hot’ Developments in Compensation
& Total Rewards affecting decision-making in strategy and operations
 Leverage professionally sound technical taxonomy and definitions (versus extremely
misleading pedestrian terminology) in the diagnosis, design, development, delivery,

Rewards
 Perform balanced, multi-faceted contextual analysis of programs in Compensation
and Total Rewards for improved design and impact
 Diagnose, Design, And Develop alignment between Company Strategy on the one
