The CEPI at Santa Clara University is pleased to announce the release of GPS | Performance Awards
to provide practical advice for companies offering performance awards. 
A recent proliferation of performance awards has presented a whole new
set of challenges for equity compensation professionals.  Even where
performance awards represent just a fraction of overall equity
compensation, given the particular audience for these awards, the
pressure is on to ensure perfectly smooth administration and financial
reporting.  Identifying and understanding the unique features of
performance awards will unlock the secret to flawless administration. GPS | Performance Awards provides:

•  Extensive coverage of design features and how different design requires different administrative processes 
  


• Critical
  areas of day-to-day administration that must be adjusted to accommodate
  the unique aspects of performance awards, specifically relating to
  granting, performance/service period, and tax and payroll
  


• Specifics of Section 16 reporting for various types of performance awards, and other pertinent legal issues
  


• 
  
  Detailed discussion of financial reporting and variances in financial reporting for different types of awards
