# Incentive Comp: Wonderful When Done Well – Disaster When Not.

![Incentive Comp- Wonderful When Done Well – Disaster When Not](https://resources.benchmarkportal.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Incentive%20Comp-%20Wonderful%20When%20Done%20Well%20%E2%80%93%20Disaster%20When%20Not.png?width=600&name=Incentive%20Comp-%20Wonderful%20When%20Done%20Well%20%E2%80%93%20Disaster%20When%20Not.png)

Incentive compensation is one of the trickiest areas of contact center management. Bruce Belfiore will draw on research and case study experience to outline the possibilities and the potential pitfalls of incentive comp. When does "comprehensive" become "complicated"? How can motivation melt away when agents feel they are being misled? We will review these elements and more on this final PACE-BenchmarkPortal for 2018.
