Unleashed: The Power of Building Trust Through Pay Transparency

In this short expert session, Gudrun Thorgeirsdottir, CBDO of Pay Equity at beqom, explains how top companies are turning pay transparency into a competitive advantage, by seeing it as much more than a compliance checklist – and as a unique opportunity to build a culture of trust.
Gudrun also discusses how having the right technology and tools can help you build sustainable, fair pay practices and empower leaders to win top talent from the boardroom to the breakroom.
What you'll learn:
- Why explaining pay is more critical for building trust than simply publishing pay.
- How to leverage technology to build sustainable and fair pay practices.
- Advice on how to answer important questions that you’ll face from employees.
Pay transparency isn’t about publishing pay – it’s about explaining it. Learn more about how to use pay transparency as a catalyst for building a fairer, more trusting organization that attracts and retains top talent.
