Leveraging Communication for Increased Engagement and Impact

Beyond the ongoing core issues, the conference sessions will address the challenges and opportunities related to increased transparency in compensation, the need to communicate aggressively about culture, and what organizations have to offer now and in the future.

With recent and new regulations on pay transparency with compensation, culture is more important than ever, and companies are navigating how to talk about compensation thoughtfully with their employees. The Communicating Total Rewards Conference will expand your thinking on the importance of communication to all HR initiatives and the efficacy of Total Rewards.

Who Should Attend: This conference is designed especially for Vice Presidents, Directors, and Managers of Human Resources, Total Rewards, Compensation and or Benefits, HR & Employee Communications, Corporate Communications, Talent Acquisition and may also be of interest to other functions.

Session A: Promises. Promises: Activating Your EVP

What do your people get every day when they come to work? A great group of colleagues? A steady paycheck? Great benefits that support them? All true. But what are they really getting by being a part of your organization? Not just getting, what are they giving? What impact are they making on the company and the world? And are they even aware? This is where a good Employee Value Proposition, (EVP), comes into play. It's the statement that tells your employees, your recruits, and even your customers, who you are and what you stand for. It's more than a tagline. It's the give and the get. And ultimately, it's a promise. And, as the saying goes, a promise is a promise. In this session, our speakers address how to craft an EVP that truly reflects what makes your company different - and once it's written - how to activate it as a part of your employee experience.

Session B: The Great Reshuffle: What Employees, Managers, and Candidates Need to Know About Total Rewards

One size does NOT fit all! Total rewards is so much more than just compensation and benefits; it is a holistic and integrated model that is central to the employee value proposition and experience. Organizations need to create a consumer-grade experience on this critical topic. In this session our speakers will share ideas on transforming communication for greater impact and results. They will discuss what managers need to understand, different approaches to internal and external populations and challenges ahead regarding total rewards communications.

Session D: Creating and Communicating Outstanding Global Financial Well-Being Programs

What does it take to get the most out of your programs to meet the changing needs of your workforce? In this session the speakers will highlight how they are getting ahead of the curve to improve understanding and drive uptake of benefits through education and communication. By using data and insights to inform your benefits strategy, and lessons learned in rolling out global programs, organizations can significantly improve outcomes. Through a combination of real-life examples and the latest global trends, they will address creating, and implementing, an adaptable financial well-being program that helps support your employees through inflation, recession and beyond.

Session E: Repositioning Total Rewards at Fannie Mae: Collaborating for Improved Communication and Greater Impact

Session F: Aligning Employer Actions with Implicit and Explicit Communications

How well do we "walk the talk"? Do policies and programs support the culture and values? Hear from one organization how they are working to ensure that they are. SVB recognized that to meet the new employee expectations, employers are offering more programs and services than ever before. However, without a comprehensive, interwoven communications strategy, employers may be sending mixed messages and undermining ROI. Moreover, employers can unintentionally drive a negative response from employees by not allowing them the opportunity to engage in the programs and services offered. They will share how creating a holistic employee experience through joint communication efforts can support employee attraction, engagement, and retention.

Session G: Trends and Challenges in Communicating Benefits and Rewards

Driving engagement in benefits and total rewards has become mission critical during the pandemic -and under the eye of the C-Suite in new ways. We'll explore how successful organizations address these challenges and embrace the changes in expectations-from both leaders and their workforce. In this session, we will discuss different approaches to developing well-thought-out communications. We will explore a range of topics including connecting communications to your values and purpose as an organization, creating more transparency, benefits and rewards discussion with the C-suite, and more.

Session J: Fireside Chat with Kelley Holland: Communicating Total Rewards So They Resonate

To truly make a difference we need to look at communication around benefits from the perspective of employees and their families. Communication and education involve more than just developing a message and delivering it. It is about creating participation and understanding. Too often we bury our information about our key programs with tech speak, jargon and over-messaging to the point employees just shut down or tune out. Kelley Holland, an author, journalist, and financial coach, will discuss how using different techniques can lead to greater impact and benefit both employers and employees. She will focus on how providing clear, simple, and focused communications can bridge the knowledge gap and help educate employees and managers on complex topics.

Session K: Personalizing Total Rewards: Making the Connection to Better Financial Outcomes

In today's challenging economic environment, voluntary employee turnover remains high as employees look for better opportunities and chase higher salaries to reach financial stability. Companies are offering robust total rewards packages to support employees holistically, but the materials they provide are usually tedious and not engaging. Employees don't value what they don't understand, which leads to low utilization, under-appreciation, and increased turnover. Our speakers will discuss the importance of delivering total rewards information with clarity and empathy. This panel addresses how a hybrid approach of innovative tech and personalized advice can help employees maximize value year-round, fueling retention and avoiding over-spending.

Session L: Communication Challenges: Expanding the Conversation about Total Rewards

Today's communication and education involves more than just developing a message and delivering it. It is about creating participation - an integral part of any highly successful initiative. As leaders look ahead, the future of effectively communicating about total rewards means leaving yesterday behind and embracing the change happening in approaches to address workforce expectations. In this session, our panelists will consider the questions: Where do we go from here? What does the future of total rewards communication need to be?

Session M: Cultivating & Communicating a Culture of Care in the Workplace: A Leadership Imperative

Employees need and expect more of their employers with respect to a safe workplace and supportive environment. Our panelists will share insight on key questions such as: -How do companies prepare, create and commit to affirmative environments that focus on safety and well-being against a backdrop of rising cases of workplace violence and mass incidents? How do they communicate that commitment? -What is the role of leadership and the governing board? -How can safety moments and other communication platforms set the tone for and empower every employee to create a safe workplace?
