It has become fashionable for institutional investors to claim that private equity firms are the ultimate pay for performance vehicles and to demand that public companies should emulate private equity-like pay-for-results programs. In this session, you will learn how some public companies have responded to this attention, despite being faced with a highly volatile stock market and uncertain business conditions, by:

• Keeping executives motivated and in the public company sector, rather than jumping to private equity deals
• Selecting long-term incentive instruments and performance metrics
• Linking incentive compensation value to company performance without the distraction of market reactions
