Let me inspire you ...
Rewarding employees with salaries, bonuses and benefits which are cost effective, yet fair and motivational, is a critical business success factor. Companies which have the most engaged, high performing and talented employees don't just provide a standard package, but have a Total Reward Strategy that considers the diversity of their workforce and what they really value, adjusting their strategy during times of economic or demographic change.
Having a competitive, attractive Total Reward offering doesn't necessarily mean increasing salaries and buying the most expensive benefits - Inspiring Reward Ltd can guide you through a review of the best, most cost effective options for your business and workforce, with communications and analytics to make sure that you have effective, future-proofed solutions.

Inspiring Stories
Total Reward Strategy
Inspiring Reward led a series of coaching workshops with the CEO and Executive Team at a multinational professional services not-for profit organisation, to define the organisation’s Total Reward Philosophy and put in place a strategic roadmap to implement the necessary Reward interventions & improvements.
A communications campaign was developed to introduce the Total Reward Philosophy, enabling employees to understand their full reward package and helping managers to understand the framework for reward decisions. This engagement and increase in transparency resulted in positive increases for questions related to fairness in pay and promotions in the Great Place to Work survey.
The campaign included new online Total Reward Summaries for each country, which are now used by the Talent Acquisition team to highlight the organisation’s Total Reward offering to candidates and attract new talent.
Employee Recognition
Inspiring Reward worked with the Executive Management Team of a professional services organisation to design and implement a new Recognition Award Program, alongside a refresh of the options available within the organisation’s Recognition toolkit.
We led an effective communications campaign with leaders, managers and employees, to highlight the importance of recognition and how to use the most appropriate and effective languages and methods of recognition to increase motivation, engagement and wellbeing in the workplace.
This resulted in an increase of 12 percentage points in the feedback on the Great Place to Work engagement survey in relation to the opportunity to receive special recognition.
Pay Structure Development
Inspiring Reward has worked with multiple clients to carry out pay benchmarking and develop pay structures which ensure their pay is market competitive and managed fairly and effectively.
At a professional services and consultancy company, Inspiring Reward carried out a comprehensive pay benchmarking exercise for over 50 roles and developed pay ranges aligned to the grading structure.
A pay governance policy was developed, which sets out the principles and processes for managing pay using the pay structures. This was accompanied by a toolkit for managers and HR to develop pay recommendations and manage the annual pay review.
Inspiring Reward developed a comprehensive communication and education program for the leadership team, HR, employees and managers, to enable them to understand the company's Total Reward Philosophy, the policy and processes for the management of pay and the factors influencing pay decisions.
Benefits Platform Selection and Implementation
At the UK division of a professional services organisation, Inspiring Reward identified the need to introduce a new broker and platform for UK benefits, to make them more competitive, cost effective and with greater process governance.
Inspiring Reward ran a comprehensive vendor RFP process for a new broker and employee benefits platform, with a highly successful implementation of the new benefits platform, which delivered new and improved benefits offerings to support financial, physical and mental wellbeing, as well as automated end to end processes and dashboards.
85% of employees engaged fully with the platform during enrolment, which was significantly higher than the vendor’s average customer base and 94% of employees said it was a better experience.
