This in person meeting/ webinar focuses on performance-based compensation approaches that community and regional banks should consider to attract and motivate staff level employees and officers.  We discuss keys to having an effective salary administration program and cash incentive plans, and will share what banks are using in respect to equity-based/longer-term incentives.  In addition, we incorporate applicable regulatory guidelines and updates surrounding base compensation and incentive-based pay, including the impact of tax reform.

·         Salary administration and salary grade best practices

·         How to use market research and banking industry surveys to benchmark positions within your bank

·         How to ensure your incentive plans are motivating the RIGHT behaviors with examples of common performance-based metrics and payout levels
