Executive Benefits
The Warner Companies' Executive Benefit Services offer organizational strength, continuity, professionalism, reliability and innovation. We help organizations with their overall executive benefits strategy as well as with the individual areas of plan design, communication, administration, security, and financing, depending on an organization's needs. For each client, a team of professionals is assigned to provide efficient and comprehensive services.
Benefit Design
A well-designed plan can attract and retain executives while helping ensure the future growth and success of your organization. The Warner Companies works closely with management or the compensation committee to assure appropriate goals and objectives are incorporated into the benefit plans. We offer experience in equity-linked performance plans and other strategies that link compensation to performance. Our experience with mergers/acquisitions gives us an advantage in incorporating change-in-control strategies into your plan.
