Challenges
In today’s competitive talent landscape, a well-structured Total Rewards strategy isn’t just nice to have, it’s business-critical, it’s fundamental to attracting, retaining, and motivating talent.
“An aligned Total Rewards strategy drives performance and strengthens the organization’s competitive positioning. »
But putting a comprehensive and effective Total Rewards strategy into practice isn’t always straightforward.
Here are some of the most common obstacles organizations face, and how Kibo Consulting partners with them to provide effective solutions.
Talent Management
The Challenge
Many Total Rewards programs operate in silos, often disconnected from broader people strategies. As a result, they fail to drive the outcomes business leaders are looking for.
Our Approach
We help organizations build Total Rewards frameworks that are fully aligned with company’s mission, values, and talent objectives. From job architecture to compensation policy, every component is designed to support the organization’s overall people agenda.
Ways of Working
The Challenge
Designing and effectively managing hybrid work models that balance flexibility, collaboration, and accountability is a major managerial challenge, especially for managers who might not be fully equipped to lead hybrid, digital-first, or cross-functional teams.
Our Approach
We design job frameworks and workflows to improve decision-making speed, enhance transparency, and strengthen cross-functional collaboration, equipping people managers to lead through complexity, ambiguity, and change.
Data and Analytics
The Challenge
Organizations often recognize the potential of data and analytics to improve decision-making, workforce planning, and performance outcomes, but many face strategic, technical, and cultural challenges, along with a lack of governance around data input and maintenance.
Our Approach
We combine data governance, tailored analytics tools, and actionable insights to help organizations turn workforce data into strategic decisions that drive performance, equity, and compliance.
Employee Experience and Value Proposition
The Challenge
A compelling Employee Value Proposition must not only be well-designed, but also consistently experienced by employees and people managers, from onboarding to career progression, recognition, and exit. The challenge is to ensure that what the organization says and offers aligns well with what employees and people managers experience every day.
Our Approach
We support organizations in closing the gap between their Employee Value Proposition strategy and the actual employee experience, through data insights, culture diagnostics, and integrated Total Rewards design.
Compensation, Pay Equity and Transparency
The Challenge
Multinational organizations often face the challenge of balancing global consistency with local requirements. Moreover, pay discrepancies can damage morale, undermine Diversity, Equity and Inclusion initiatives, and expose organizations to compliance risks.
Our Approach
We conduct comprehensive pay equity diagnostics and partner with organizations to design transparent, equitable and fair compensation policies that foster trust and integrity throughout the workforce.
Ineffective Communication of Rewards
The Challenge
Even the best-designed programs fail if employees don’t under-stand or appreciate their value.
Our Approach
We support organizations in clearly communicating the full value of their Total Rewards offering by leveraging tailored messaging, digital tools, and people managers’ training to ensure effective message delivery.
Resistance to Change
The Challenge
Shifting away from legacy systems or outdated models can some-times be met with skepticism or fear.
Our Approach
We guide organizations through change by engaging stakeholders early, building buy-in, and embedding new practices that truly stick.
To respond effectively, organizations must:
Invest in HR technology and analytics to enable evidence-based people decisions.
Build inclusive leadership and governance aligned with societal and ESG expectations.
Redesign workforce models and structures for agility and resilience.
Foster a learning and innovation culture to future-proof capabilities.
Beyond technological adaptations and evolving internal processes, the people agenda is key to supporting the organizational transformation and accelerating the transition, it is the road to success.
