5 June 2024 in Doha

Direct your organization’s energies to maximizing company value. Learn an innovative approach to measure period performance, formulate strategies, allocate capital, pay for performance, and align managers with shareholders, all with a cohesive single-minded focus on value creation. Evaluate whether value-based management is an appropriate tool for your company, and learn what it takes to implement it.
If you are working in one of the following roles, we invite you to join us for this interactive workshop that will boost your understanding of how to align managers with shareholders in both listed and private companies:
  • CEOs, General Managers, and Business Unit heads.
  • Senior finance,  Strategy and Corporate Planning executives.
  • HR, Compensation and Performance Evaluation executives.
  • Board Members and Shareholders.
  • Private Equity Fund managers.
  • Understand value creation and why it is critical to business success.
  • Learn why this objective isn't at odds with the interests of other stakeholders.
  • Identify the steps to institute value based management and incentive compensation at your company.
  • Understand shortcomings of Economic Value Added as a stand-alone financial tool.
  • Learn the best practices in customizing your performance measurement.
  • Make the right decision-making tools available to business managers to help them make better decisions.
  • Design and build an incentive system around value creation.
  • Reconcile competitive pay imperatives of the labor market with shareholders'' return requirements determined by the capital market.
A company’s success is ultimately measured by its ability to create value for its shareholders. Successful management makes the best, most effective decisions, and doing this requires understanding what creates value.  

“Economic Value Added” is a shareholder-aligned methodology that extracts optimal value from the balance sheet, ensuring shareholders receive the value-maximizing return from executive decisions. Its use as a performance measure alone while a step forward, can’t fully close the loop aligning executives with shareholders. By introducing the innovative Economic Value Added Bonus Plan, the executive’s decision-making horizon is stretched, holding him accountable for sustainable performance. 

Properly implemented, the Bonus Plan reconciles labor market imperatives with capital market return requirements and minimizes retention risk. Key executives receive competitive compensation and shareholders receive a competitive return. Executives receive a fixed share of any excess above the target, but share the risk if targets aren’t met. Companies adopting such incentives stay with them. Benefits include the added advantage of automatic annual reset of targets without tedious budget and compensation negotiations.

The workshop teaches comprehensive understanding of transformative strategies: How Shareholder-Aligned Value-Based Management can streamline corporate management and internal governance, create value for shareholders, and place your company on a path to sustainable growth.
