Project Origins • In late calendar 2000 Bill Parrett, Americas Managing Partner, and the U.S. Operating Committee, made the following a priority because of the strategic business need for D&T to create a further competitive advantage through its people: • - Reinvigorating “the Compensation Function” • - Initiating a special project – focusing on creating a competitive advantage for D&T through meeting the career/reward/recognition needs of staff members • Project named “Creative Career and Compensation Solutions”

The Value Chain & Employer of Choice VALUE PROPOSITION COMMITMENT PRODUCTIVITY CLIENT SATISFACTION BUSINESS IMPACT • WHAT WE OFFER • WHAT WE EXPECT PEOPLE ALIGN WITH STRATEGY & MAKE EXTRA EFFORT • PERFORMANCE • LEARNING • GROWING • INNOVATION • RETENTION OF RIGHT PEOPLE • ACCESS TO TALENT WITH: • RIGHT SKILLS • CLIENT SUCCESS FOCUS • COMMITMENT TO STAY • GROWTH IN: • REVENUES • PROFITS • MARKET PENETRATION • BRAND/MARKETREPUTATION • SUCCESS IN: • GLOBALIZING • NEW VENTURES

  8. Reasons to Act Now Strategic • Two of the six measures of success speak to doubling revenue and profits in the next few years. To accomplish this, we: • Need to focus on excellence in the 3Ds so that, • many more of the right people will stay longer than has traditionally been the case • we take steps to be “an even better place to work” in order to move more of our professionals to the highly committed category • Experience and research show that committed people make for more satisfied clients and better financial results • We have a strategic opportunity to stay out in front of our competitors (who increasingly imitate our current programs) while they are preoccupied with business challenges • We want to win – to dominate - and be acknowledged as the best - not just stay in the game

  9. Reasons to Act Now Demographic • Demographic factors remain unchanged; there is still a short supply of highly talented people, which will continue for the next 5-10 years • This shortage will be acute again when the economy recovers • The best talent always have options regardless Cultural • We have done little to address the concerns of our professionals expressed in the last GPCS • While the economic slowdown and 9/11-related events could be expected to have some impact, there are no data to date suggesting that these concerns have materially changed • We want our people to stay with us because this is the place they want to work not because they may have few alternatives • And…our people and our culture require us to move to a completely new level of Employer of Choice

  10. What We’ve Heard From Our People • Allow me to change jobs without leaving the firm • Allow me to set my work schedule and workplace and ultimately be successful • Pay for performance • Deliver on firm’s promise to have a real performance management process, which will guide my career within Deloitte
