The Future of Compensation with Kathryn Petralia, Keep Financia

The HR Gazette Season 1 Episode 493

Today’s business environment – with rapidly changing employee behavior, unprecedented resignations, and evolving socio-economic conditions – has rendered traditional recruiting and retention methods ineffective. The market is showing the need for an innovative approach to employee engagement and compensation.

In this HRchat episode, we consider the future of compensation. Our guest today is Kathryn Petralia, co-Founder and President of Keep Financial, a tech company with a goal to revolutionize compensation and employee engagement.

Questions for Kathryn include: 

  • What's the mission of Keep Financial? At a high level, how are you helping HR pros, leaders and employees?  (recruitment, retention, and performance)
  • How does high employee morale along with employee engagement lead to higher productivity, less turnover and ultimately increased compensation ROI for that organization?
  • According to a report from The Conference Board, salary budgets are set to increase 3.9% this year – the largest amount since 2008: “The rapid increase in wages and inflation are forcing businesses to make important decisions regarding their approach to salaries, recruiting and retention. In particular, companies are likely to raise wages aggressively for their current employees or they will risk even lower retention rates.” Tell me more about the impact of increased wages and rising expectations around compensation.  
  • Your team recently announced updates to the Keep Employee Engagement Platform (KEEP). How does KEEP offer an innovative way for employers to direct compensation into plans that enhance the engagement, retention, and performance of their most valuable employees? Tell me about the process and clever tech behind what you do.
