Course Introduction
“How does executive remuneration link to our strategy and Key Performance Indicators?”
FRC Guidance on Board Effectiveness 2018
These two committees are well-established elements of corporate governance: supporting the firm’s achievement of its purpose and its culture. In truth, failings and exposure in both executive remuneration and quality have themselves driven extensions of corporate governance, with regulators stage managing in the wings, and a rapidly evolving diversity agenda. Not surprisingly this has led to a progressive extension in their scope, remit….and regulatory expectations.
They make decisions that reflect and support the people and culture of the business. There is a wealth of evidence that the mix of competencies, independence and skills of the Board are critical to the effectiveness of the Board and the success of the company. Of equal importance is the informed judgement in determining levels of remuneration, the link with performance, alongside the structure of the executive package.
It is essential that those appointed to the Remuneration and/or Nomination Committees are aware of the standards they are required to meet and understand the regulators’ perspective.
Being a Remuneration or Nomination Committee member is not an ‘easy’ option. This course will update you on the core responsibilities, developments and direction of travel, explore some common challenges and facilitate thinking through how you evidence the effectiveness of your committees.
