Business owners are confident in addressing many topics, but get them talking about compensation and their confidence goes out the window. Few business owners have any comprehensive compensation program; instead deals are made with one team member at a time until their whole compensation scheme is deals on top of deals.
In this presentation Brad Farris reviews Four Common Compensation Mistakes and provides practical solutions to each of them. Using real data that members bring to the presentation we will review the process of determining fair and reasonable salary ranges, potential for merit increases, bonus and other variable compensation and tie it all together into a comprehensive compensation plan.

Employee Engagement to Maximize Performance – New for 2010
The last few years have been tough, business owners have had to change the ways they compensate and motivate their teams. Gone are the days of ping-pong tables, big bonuses and free soda. Now it’s no raises, more work, and a load of uncertainty. Yet we still need our teams to come to work everyday and give 110%. How do we engage our employee’s hearts and minds when we can no longer pour on lots of cash compensation? Heck, we can’t even afford the cool office any more!
In order to overcome these challenges we will talk about building trust, while adopting transparency while maintaining your authority as the leader.

Managing People You Can't See
Our work teams are becoming increasingly dispersed. Whether you're telecommuting, managing locations throughout the Midwest, or have a sales team that's constantly on the move, we can help you become an effective leader of this team you don't see day-to-day. Success doesn't mean acquiring a new set of skills, but honing the management skills you do have and using technology to do the rest.
We'll assess your current situation, teach you the five keys to managing flexible work teams, work with you to determine the virtual team tech tools that are right for your business, train your virtual workers, and meet with you quarterly to review how it's going, provide advice and fine-tune your program.

In their own words...
My members LOVED this talk! I kid you not, you were rated higher than most of our speakers... they loved your style, your authenticity, your knowledge, your flexibility, your willingness to throw out your presentation and go with their flow... and more.-- Mikki Williams, Vistage Chair
I have invited Brad to speak at two of my Vistage groups (and been in the audience for at least two other public presentations he has made). More than a year later, both groups are STILL talking about and referencing practices from Brad's presentation. Brad has what I refer to as "accessible intelligence" -- he knows his stuff and he serves it up so the rest of us can understand it and, more importantly, make it immediately actionable. His presentation are engaging and informative--with clear take away value.
