Does it seem that every time you increase pay you get more - not fewer - complaints? Have you heard "I don't get paid to do that"? Or, "Why can't he pull his own weight?" Is it inevitable that you have to go through uncertainty, anger and lost productivity associ-ated with growth, new jobs and questions about reasonable pay for a day's work? It is not inevitable - and too often more money mis-applied only makes matters worse.

IGP experts have implemented successful salary programs that resulted in clear roles, opportunity paths and perceived equity, Let our experienced executives institute a job and salary structure that takes the guesswork out.

But don't forget that everyone needs to know what they have done well and what they could do better. One of the major sources of disengagement is not knowing where one stands, how to improve, or whether anyone even cares. We can implement performance re-views; peer reviews; 360 degrees reviews; and performance improvement programs. Let us train your managers how to continuously improve performance; how to convey good news as well as bad so that both have the impact you need.

And don't forget your high performers (too many companies do). Have you had a great employee leave because they didn't think any-one noticed their accomplishments? Or they were tired of doing the same job all the time? Let us show you not only how to imple-ment a "High Pot" program, but how to kindle the drive in many of your middle-of-the-road performers to become high performers
