Total rewards is no longer just a compensation spreadsheet and an open enrollment packet. It’s your most powerful tool for attracting, retaining, and engaging the talent your organization needs to thrive — and the rules are changing fast. EANE’s Total Rewards team, Cassie Vaughan and Terri Patnode, will bring back the latest information from World at Work’s Total Rewards Conference in April and deliver the highlights to you at this in-person event!

And, we are excited to announce the launch of TRANE+, the Total Rewards Association of the Northeast, a networking group that will offer fresh insights, practical strategies, and a new professional community built just for conversations around total rewards.

What’s on the Agenda:

Salary Benchmarking in Today’s Market (30 min) Pay equity, pay transparency, and a shifting labor market have made salary benchmarking more critical — and more complex — than ever. In this session, we’ll cut through the noise and share best practices for building a benchmarking process that keeps your organization competitive, defensible, and compliant.

Benefits for the New World of Work (30 min) Employees expect more. Budgets don’t always agree. We’ll explore how forward-thinking organizations are rethinking their benefits offerings — from flexible and lifestyle benefits to mental health support and beyond — to meet employees where they are today.

Introducing TRANE+ (15–20 min) Be among the first to learn about the Total Rewards Network of the Northeast — a new membership community for HR and total rewards professionals who want to sharpen their expertise, connect with peers, and stay ahead of the curve on compensation, benefits, wellness, recognition, and development. Founding members get in on the ground floor. You won’t want to miss it.

Who Should Attend: HR professionals, compensation and benefits specialists, and anyone responsible for total rewards strategy at their organization.
