Beyond Titles: Job Analysis Methodologies in Modern Compensation Design
In a labor market where job titles often outpace role clarity, organizations risk misalignment between job content, compensation, and market benchmarks. This session explores foundational job analysis methodologies—such as task-based, worker-oriented, and competency models—and how they underpin equitable, defensible job evaluation practices. Learn how these approaches support internal job leveling, enable accurate benchmarking, and enhance Total Rewards strategies. We'll also briefly discuss how AI-powered tools can assist in analyzing large volumes of job data without losing the judgment and context provided by human experts.
Learning Objectives:
- Differentiate between core job analysis methodologies and determine their practical applications in compensation design.
- Apply structured job analysis methods to support consistent job leveling that aligns with internal frameworks and external market benchmarks.
- Identify risks associated with job title inflation and role ambiguity, and leverage job analysis to improve role clarity and compensation alignment.

All analysis and benchmarking in HR relies on having the right categorizations of people. As data becomes more plentiful and available, the best benchmarks will live and die by how well they can standardize across organizations. Learn how to best position your analysis with modern and adaptable taxonomies of occupations, skill, and work activities.
Takeaways:
1) Good job architecture is more important than good data.
2) We’re spending too much money on outdated frameworks that don’t update.
3) There are exciting new possibilities for what kind of benchmarking becomes possible with the right job architecture.
Untangling Complexity in Incentive Compensation: A Growth Framework By Design
Date: 3/11/2025
Time: 12:00 - 1:00pm CT
Webinar
Behind every successful incentive compensation program lies a strong foundation built on structure and disciplined governance. Yet for many organizations, incentive systems evolve reactively, accumulating years of exceptions, redundant plans, and inconsistent ownership. As a result, hidden complexity erodes trust, slows processes, and obscures performance.
This executive-level workshop helps compensation leaders uncover and eliminate that complexity before it limits future growth. Drawing on proven methodologies used across hundreds of enterprise environments, our experts will guide you through a practical framework for assessing plan inventory, streamlining governance, and reducing operational risk. Participants will leave with concrete steps to diagnose organizational bottlenecks, rationalize their incentive portfolios, and build a foundation for continuous improvement.
Finally, the session connects these strategic insights to the broader Sales Performance Management journey. You’ll gain a rare, behind-the-scenes perspective on how upstream discipline in governance and design directly influences an organization’s ability to advance through the SPM maturity curve, from ad hoc and fragmented to fully integrated and intelligent. Whether your next step is automation, integration, or optimization, the groundwork you will lay today determines how far you can go tomorrow.
Key Takeaways:
- Governance & Plan Design Benchmark Matrix: to help you evaluate current-state structure and accountability
- SPM Maturity Roadmap: to visualize the path from ad hoc to intelligent performance management
- Portfolio Simplification Playbook: a simple guide to methodically identify, rationalize, and streamline plans and metrics
