​Compensation is one of the most powerful levers CFOs have to attract and retain top talent and drive profitability. Excessive cuts force turnover and hurt performance, while overly generous pay strains budgets and planning.

​In this session, CFOs will explore how to redesign salary, incentives, equity, and benefits by weighing the tradeoffs that matter most.

​You’ll leave with a framework for deciding when to invest in talent versus tighten costs, how to structure incentives that reward both short- and long-term results, and practical tactics for effective offers without overpaying.
