Reward Value 

Most corporations today claim to be purpose-led, putting people and planet first. But the efforts of millions who join them are undermined by outdated financial incentives that reward CEOs to deliver short term gains at all costs. 

Reward Value works with investors, universities, and the business sector to modernise executive remuneration as a catalyst for positive change.  

Do you think it is important to contribute to social, financial and environmental challenges?  
Do you believe in the power of companies as a force for good?
