Book Synopsis Aligning CEO Incentives with a Company's Long-Term Agenda by : Simon C. Y. Wong
Book excerpt: This commentary, a contribution to the Harvard Business Review Online Forum on the CEO's role in fixing the capitalist system, makes the argument that for an incentive system to usefully support a firm's long-term, society focused agenda, companies need to lessen their reliance on financial rewards to motivate top management, strengthen share-ownership requirements and stock-vesting conditions for senior executives and board members, and change CEOs' perception of compensation as a tool to "keep score" vis-à-vis their peers and bolster their own egos.
