Incentive Compensation Planning is Focus of Two-Day Seminar

Designed for Human Resource Professionals

Madison, NJ (August 19, 2004) — Among human resource professionals, a key topic is incentive pay. Changes in business and economic environments can profoundly impact on a company’s survival and growth. Adapting to these changes means having the right tools — a well-planned process for attracting, motivating, and retaining key staff members.

A two-day seminar on incentive compensation will be held on September 23 and 24, 2004, at Fairleigh Dickinson University’s College at Florham, Madison, NJ.

Presented by FDU’s Rothman Institute of Entrepreneurial Studies, the session will be led by nationally recognized expert Paul R. Dorf, managing director of Compensation Resources, Inc. He brings more than 40 years of compensation experience to the workshop and will provide participants with innovative strategies for incentive compensation. Dorf has more than two decades of direct consulting experiences as head of the Executive Compensation Consulting Practices for major accounting and actuarial/benefit consulting firms, including KPMG, Deloitte Touche and Kwasha Lipton.

Topics to be covered in the two-day seminar include identifying the major issues that impact pay; evaluating the strategic aspects of incentive compensation; identification of plan designs and the details of each plan; understanding of the unique aspects of specialized incentive plans – including those impacting sales personnel and executives; managing incentive pay through a systematic performance evaluation process; and how to implement, communicate and evaluate an incentive program.

The seminar at FDU has been approved for 13.5 recertification credit hours toward PHR and SPHR recertification through the Human Resource Certification Institute.

The deadline for registration is September 8, 2004. The cost is $1,295 per attendee. For further information, call 201 934 0505 x 180 or ddn@compensationresources.com.
