Bridging Workplace Generation Gap

The second in my Bridging Workplace Generation Gap series takes a closer look at one of the major causes of human and financial losses in this industry. Because of the magnitude of the problem, I will only be discussing one aspect in this Bridging Workplace Generation Gap series, namely compensation.

In this article, I want to show you how an organization can not only avoid this issue, but also what you can do to prevent it from happening in the future. I want to discuss this issue further in my third Bridging Workplace Generation Gap series.

Compensation is a huge part of being an executive, or any professional for that matter. It is a very complex and crucial element in this industry. It is also, most likely, the one part of compensation that you may not understand completely.

No matter what field you are in, you cannot control how much people make, you cannot control their level of skill, nor your skill in negotiating. Your job is to get your compensation right, but you can't do it without first having a good understanding of what compensation is, and why it is so important to the success of your business.

Let's first take a look at some of the more general concept involved. When you speak with people about compensation, they are usually referring to the value that someone provides to your business. You want to understand that point of view because of what it represents to people who do not share your knowledge and training.

Now for a more targeted view of compensation, this is the concept where you look at the value of a specific output from your business. This is what you should look at when trying to understand what that specific output is. Again, this could apply to your skills, your education, or any other input that you have made to the company.

Both of these general concepts are important, but there is more to it than just that. Let's take a look at the specific concept and some of the more important ideas.

Compensations are typically based on the level of talent that you offer your employees. You want to make sure that your compensation system provides your workers with the greatest benefits. That means your workers must be paid what they bring to the table and not what you think they should be paid. What does that mean?

Well, in many ways, the standard compensation system is a free lunch, meaning that it has no real clue about how to account for what you and the rest of the world see as talent. Your true compensation should be for the cost of bringing value to your company.

Building Your Compensation Plan To follow, you need to first identify what the specific value is that you want to use to arrive at your compensation. Next, you need to be aware of the full scope of your employees, both as an employer and as a person in your workplace. This involves figuring out what your needs are, what you offer them, and how you communicate it to them.

Your compensation model is like any other system, in that it works best when all of the elements work together to offer you the best results. Unfortunately, in the case of compensations, you will not always have these working in your favor.
