However, merely less than one-third of them think that their total rewards and business priorities are fully aligned. The missing link to effective total rewards strategy is the lack of acknowledgement of the business needs, the changing environment, the employees demographics, the local culture and the current and future cost constraints. The Smart Total Rewards Asia 2015 has been developed in collaboration with the industry to address critical issues around total rewards, benefits planning, benchmarking and optimising your employee value proposition. It is the first of its kind in the region, showcasing a range of best practice case studies from award winning companies that adopted a holistic approach to reward management by incorporating everything employees value in their employment relationship compensation, benefits, recognition, development and the work environment, in winning the talent of war.
