Questions to Ask:
1. What must our company do to be successful in fulfilling its
mission or achieving its desired competitive position?
2. What are the employee behaviors or actions necessary to
successfully implement this competitive strategy?
3. What compensation programs should we use to reinforce those
behaviors? What should be the purpose of each program in
reinforcing each desired behavior?
4. What measurable requirements should each compensation
program meet to be deemed successful in fulfilling its purpose?
5. How well do our current compensation programs match these
requirements?
