Stakeholder Incentives

Sustainability Overtures

Stakeholder incentives are integral to executive pay plans. Our team has built deep expertise to address sustainability challenges, including carbon-neutral goals. Our sustainability expertise is embedded in every client engagement. This accelerates our understanding of a client’s sustainability positioning and enhances our initial evaluation of performance, competitive positioning, and change processes to determine the right recommendations.

Listening to Stakeholders

Stakeholders are pressuring corporations to provide greater transparency and clearly disclose their commitments to sustainability goals. Our team follows the shifting interests and priorities of stakeholder groups—investors, employees, consumers, and communities. Each year, we analyze global trends and publish exclusive research that examines aspects of governance, board structure and composition, shareholder rights, and the increasing use of stakeholder incentives around the world. This research provides Farient and our global GECN Group team with invaluable insights that we use to inform our advice to clients.
