For this Minor Project, you will select an American company that interests you and evaluate their use of CEO goal-setting and performance measurement to
help you assess their “Pay for Performance” structure. This information will be found in the company’s annual proxy statements and other publicly-filed
documents (use this linkLinks to an external site. if you need help).
In a 2-3 page research paper discuss the following:
1.What compensation package and “pay for performance structure” was given to the CEO? (.5 page)
- Does the company’s use of goal setting and performance measurement make strategic sense for that company? (.5 page)
- Select and research 2 “peer” companies and discuss any differences or similarities you found in compensation or performance structure. Do the peer
companies use different practices that should be adopted? (.5 to 1 page) - Based on your readings from this week what do you observe to be the major differences between this CEO’s compensation package and the rest of the
company’s non-executive employees? (.5 to 1 page)
Remember: Don’t forget that all major and minor research papers require APA formatting (which is not included in the page count). In addition, each paper
should include Times New Roman and double-spaced formatting. For this paper utilize multiple sources in your research.
