Future Compensation Possibilities

After reviewing several other blogs and chatting with mom, I have decided to post about every two weeks. I’m enjoying the whole blogging experience even though it’s hard to tell if anyone is plugged in on a regular basis, other than mom. So, for this week I will ask a question and look for your reply. As before, this information will prove helpful in building the type of organizations we so desperately need in the not so distant future.

Scenario: Let’s say employees are allowed to spend 10% - 15% of their time developing skills that fall outside of their day-to-day job description within the organization. Let’s further assume that the employee is a novice in this area.

Question: How would you compensate them for their time and effort considering you, the employer, are giving them time to explore new career possibilities that they may feel passionate about?

Sidebar: Steve Mariucci, former head coach for the San Francisco 49ers football team, said he never wears a watch, because “I always know what time it is. It is always NOW. And NOW is when you should do it.” With that in mind decide what steps you can implement NOW to create the future you dream of.
