Make Compensation a Powerful Catalyst

Our Philosophy is Different

We believe that aligning executive compensation with your business and leadership strategy can make your pay programs a powerful catalyst for value creation and competitive advantage.

Our Approach Makes Us Unique 

Our philosophy defines how we manage each client engagement and is supported by a methodology that ensures compensation strategies that go beyond compliance-driven and peer-group-based design of executive pay programs.

Go Beyond With Pearl Meyer

Create a Business-based Compensation Strategy

As a Pearl Meyer client, you will receive the benefit of our business-based, strategic thinking grounded in more than 30 years of experience guiding the creation, implementation and communication of executive, director and employee pay programs for hundreds of global clients.

We begin by understanding the unique needs of your organization—your industry, your culture, your business objectives. And then apply that knowledge to a careful and consistent process which integrates strategy and analytics—combined with the appropriate focus on compliance—to deliver tailored solutions.

Align Pay Programs to Leadership Strategy

Too often organizations ignore the human element in both compensation design and the way in which a program is communicated. Our senior consultants will consider your organization’s long-term talent management strategy in concert with individual leadership profiles to create customized pay programs.

Well-designed pay programs can motivate behaviors that will drive value for your organization and create competitive advantage when incentives consider both leadership style and where your organization is in its business life-cycle.
