Commitment To Clients

Compensation is an extension of company strategy. It is my focus to ensure that all constituents in the compensation-setting process understand the external data from competitive market practices when guiding them to the appropriate internal decisions that will maximize their ability to execute strategic plans and create enterprise value.

Biography

Ian recently joined Pearl Meyer, bringing with him 10 years of experience advising clients on executive, key employee and board of director compensation program matters.
