Vantage Circle Blog – What is Total Rewards Strategy? An HR’s Guide

Posted on by

What is a Total Rewards Strategy? A “Total Rewards Strategy” is a method used by businesses to create and implement a comprehensive compensation and benefits package for its employees. Instead of focusing solely on wages, a total rewards strategy considers the complete bundle of rewards that an employee receives, both tangible and intangible. “People want to know they matter and want to be treated as people. That’s the new talent contract.” – Pamela Stroko A well-crafted Total Rewards Strategy encompasses monetary rewards, such as salaries and bonuses, alongside vital non-monetary elements like recognition, work-life balance, and career development opportunities. By strategically integrating these elements, organizations can create a compelling value proposition for their employees. This approach not only attracts top talent but also helps improve […]

Posted on by

  Steve Goldberg, HCM research & advisory, and Jennifer Borun, senior director, analyst relations and strategic engagement of Cornerstone, sat down on LinkedIn Live to discuss how to guide your organization through solving future problems and succeeding in a volatile market. Take one look at the news (or your LinkedIn feed), and you’ll see a lot of talk about market changes and economic shifts. There’s fear and uncertainty about what’s to come. Steve explained that unpredictability and volatility are relative concepts, but the landscape of a pandemic has given these terms a tangible depth and taken uncertainty to a new level.

Analyst Insight: Talent Intelligence Fundamentally Shifts How Organizations Should Measure Success

Posted on by

As 2023 rang in, so did the hype over artificial intelligence, particularly with generative AI (such as ChatGPT). Seemingly overnight, the long-gathering buzz surrounding AI’s applicability not only to the world of work, but also to business and everything else, became nearly deafening. AI has become seemingly pertinent to just about everything — and it probably is. As more industries begin to realize the opportunities this rapidly developing technology presents to their operations and bottom lines, questions abound. Front-and-center among them is: where to start? In human capital management (HCM), the answer is, just about anywhere.

#HRTechChat: Navigating the Talent Shortage: A Creative Approach to Skills-Based Hiring

Posted on by

Businesses face a growing challenge: the talent shortage. The traditional ways of recruiting and hiring no longer suffice in a world where the working-age population is shrinking, and the gap between available talent and job openings is widening. To shed light on this issue, we turn to recent research from the Burning Glass Institute and a fascinating conversation with Pamela Stroko about innovative solutions. Here are some of the main themes of our conversation: The Shrinking Workforce The working-age population has been steadily declining, with little to no growth. Starting in 2012, we witnessed a meager 0.5% growth in the working-age population, and this rate slowed to 0.2% from 2017 onwards. This trend is expected to persist until at least 2030, painting a grim picture […]
