Welcome

  Throughout most sectors of the economy, there is a pervasive sense that the party is over. While this appears to be true for many, the current economy and the uncertain stock market present a whole breadth of new opportunities.

For the managers and Boards of public companies, one of the opportunities is to re-focus around fundamentals. There are ways and means of using pay to help get everyone back to the basics of creating real and sustainable growth in shareholder value. We maintain that the universal starting point is company strategy.

Our cover story, Strategic pay solutions for today's tough challenges, provides scenarios for many of the challenges facing companies today, with some thoughts on how companies can respond, particularly from an executive compensation perspective.

In other features in this issue,our story on Today's challenges and tomorrow's opportunities highlights significant research findings that identified strengths and challenges in talent management and key areas of focus for the future. The ability to sustain a steady supply of critical talent is a challenge facing all organizations - worldwide.

The issues behind Incivility in the workplace are ultimately costing employers in Asia. Research shows that incivility in the workplace has a significant impact on employee engagement while other ongoing research shows that engaged employees deliver better business results.

I also invite you to access our electronic version of this newsletter at www.hewittasia.com/HQ to view these and other bonus features online.

Enjoy the read.
