  • Driving Profitable Growth through Incentives with Beth Carroll
Participant Benefit: In addition to learning the basics of good incentive compensation design, we will develop draft incentive plans for 2 key brokerage roles during the course. The roles chosen will be selected by majority vote of participants, preferably in advance of the seminar. Participants may use these plan designs in their own businesses.   We will use real examples throughout, of things to do and not do, to keep the material relevant and interesting to participants.
