At what point does your compensation process start working against you?

What starts as spreadsheets or homegrown systems can work early on. But as plans grow more complex, those same processes introduce errors, slow teams down, and require more time, people, and support to maintain.

In this session, Franklin Madison CFO Preston Porter shares firsthand experience managing incentive compensation across manual, homegrown, and modern systems — and what it actually costs when those systems don’t keep up.

What you’ll learn:

• How payout errors lead to financial impact and loss of trust
• Why manual processes create compounding admin work and cost
• The hidden risks of homegrown systems and single points of failure
• Signs your current approach is no longer scaling with the business
• How to reduce reliance on IT, audits, and ongoing consultant support

Thursday, May 21 | 10 AM PT / 1 PM ET

A practical session for teams hitting the limits of spreadsheets, legacy tools, or internal systems.

We’ll also touch on how to evaluate when it makes sense to continue building internally versus investing in a purpose-built solution.
