Reward Strategy? Am I Bovvered?

The London Business School 'Human Capital Series', hosted Duncan Brown and John Campbell, on the 11th of July, to speak on the topic of 'Strategic Reward'. They had an interesting take on the topic.

HR text books, they said, can't help you with your Reward Strategy and clinical hot house models of Reward Strategy are a waste of time! This, coming from a man who has co-written one of the best books on 'Strategic Reward' in the UK over the last couple of years and from another who heads Reward for one of the largest financial institutions in the world, was a bit of a shock. But Duncan Brown and John Campbell were both very clear; if your Reward Strategy can't engage your employees, it is meaningless. People don't necessarily trust their employers. The paternalistic models of Employee-Employer relationships have all but died. And informing your employees that their Reward structure is changing fills them with dread, not expectation. So what exactly should we be doing in such a situation?

We have written a white paper summarising the discussions emanating from the event.
