What Your Compensation Strategy Might Be Missing
In today’s hiring landscape, compensation isn’t a side note—it’s a deciding factor.
It used to be that salary came up at the end of the process. Now? It’s often the first question candidates ask. They’re not just asking about pay—they’re asking about sustainability, family life, and whether they can afford to live where they lead.
At Slingshot, that’s why compensation is a big part of every search conversation. We know it’s tricky—but it’s also essential. And here’s the key: we have no financial incentive tied to how much a candidate earns. Our fee isn’t a percentage of salary, which means our only goal is helping you find and hire the right leader for your mission.
Throughout every search, we coach and advise you through the real-world conversations that matter most—clarity around role, market data, and what a healthy, sustainable offer looks like.
But sometimes what’s needed goes deeper—a comprehensive look at how compensation works across your whole organization.
That’s where our Compensation Coaching process helps you move from uncertainty to clarity. We’ll listen, analyze, and create a plan that honors your people, fits your budget, and fuels your mission for the long haul.
Let’s build a compensation plan that helps you hire—and keep—great leaders.
