This is the third
in the series of books written by us. The first is The
New Pay: Linking Employee and Organizational Performance (Jossey-Bass
Publishers, 1992), and the second is Pay
People Right! Breakthrough Reward Strategies to Create Great
Companies (Jossey-Bass Publishers, 2000).
The
New Pay is credited with starting the transformation to the
expanded use of variable pay below the management level—some 80%
of organizations now use some form of variable pay for
non-management personnel. Pay People Right! was one of the
first to pose a model for total rewards—total rewards has become
the cornerstone of pay and rewards design since 2000. High-Performance
Pay suggests the business case for the why and how of really
paying for performance as a concrete and effective business
strategy to create a performance culture and a high-performance
organization.
Praise for
High-Performance Pay
Here
is what leading management thinkers say about
High-Performance Pay:
Dave
Ulrich, Professor, Ross School of Business, University of Michigan and
Partner, The RBL Group says
“High-Performance
Pay is a thorough and thoughtful compilation of present and future
total reward practices. Zingheim and Schuster offer both design principles
and practical guides for action for the key challenges facing line
executives and total reward professionals. Their insights will help
keep super talent, build company brands, design and deliver both base
salary and incentive programs, reward high performers, align competencies
and skills to reward programs, meet unique needs of those working in
contact centers and sales, and create performance-based executive
compensation systems. This compendium of practices illustrates how
innovations in pay can sustain and drive business performance.”
Edward
E. Lawler III, Distinguished Professor of Business and Director, Center
for Effective Organizations, University of Southern California and
co-author of Built to Change and The New American Workplace says
“The development of a
business strategy-driven reward system is critical in creating a
high-performance organization. This means not just pay for performance,
but the right kind of pay for performance. Pat and Jay’s book provides
the latest and best information on achieving high performance through
pay.”
James
O’Toole, Research Professor, Center for Effective Organizations,
University of Southern California, author of Creating the Good
Life and co-author of The New American Workplace says
“Effective leadership
requires making rewards count. High-Performance Pay is a leader’s
primer on how to recognize and reward excellence—a key ingredient of
organizational success.”
Dr.
John W. Boudreau, Research Director, Center for Effective Organizations
and Professor, Management and Organization, Marshall School of Business,
University of Southern California and co-author of Beyond HR: The New
Science of Human Capital says—
“Pat Zingheim and Jay
Schuster show that pay systems must treat investments in total rewards
like the vital business decisions they are, incorporating talent
segmentation, logical decision principles and agility.”

Read the Foreword by
Mike Davis of General Mills:
At
many companies—and in many industries—total rewards systems are in
trouble. They were built upon a series of premises that no longer hold
true. The world of work is rapidly changing, but the designs of pay,
benefit and total rewards systems are stuck in the mud...read
