Board / Compensation Committee Advisory Services
Overview

Compensation Resources, Inc. (CRI) has a wide range of expertise in assisting the Board of Directors and their Compensation Committees with the development of effective programs focused on Director's Pay, Retainers, and Equity Compensation. We also provide key support as an independent advisor to the Board in their efforts to adequately compensate their Top Talent in the Company.
CRI works with the Boards of publicly traded organizations, privately held businesses, and not-for-profit entities on a variety of executive and Board compensation issues. Today, there is a large spotlight on Board Governance, and we can assist the Board by ensuring that the plans they develop today do not become tomorrow’s problems.
As a result of Sarbanes-Oxley legislation and recent SEC Proxy Disclosure Rules changes, many Boards, Committees, and Management personnel are searching for the right answer for their compensation programs. There are many equity vehicles, such as restricted stock, stock options, performance shares, and employee stock purchase plans, that provide an effective linkage between the Board, Management, and the Shareholders. Today’s shareholders are demanding a stronger correlation between performance and pay, and are demanding that compensation be tied to increased shareholder value. These are the key tenets to our approach to handling Executive Compensation and Board remuneration.
