TOTAL COMPENSATION ALLIANCE
Two Swiss Firms.
One Compensation Partner.
Compensation projects demand coherence from strategy to implementation. CGSE and [dialog]unlocked combine their expertise to guide you through the entire cycle — single mandate, one point of contact, seamless global execution.
OUR APPROACH
One Alliance. Full Cycle Deployment.
Strategy, design, and global implementation under a single mandate.
Most compensation projects change hands at least twice: once when the design is done, and again when legal, tax, and reporting work begins. Each handover costs time and dilutes context. Our alliance eliminates these breaks, ensuring continuity from the first draft to the shareholder vote.

WHY PARTNER WITH US
The Alliance Advantage
One Point of Contact
Advice usually stops at the recommendation; the plan still has to be written, filed, communicated, and disclosed. We stay until it is done. One contact throughout the project, or two if you prefer to engage each firm separately.
Agile & Practitioner-Led
Highly specialized advice grounded in the reality of in-house management. We leverage lean processes and the direct involvement of senior experts — no junior handovers.
Swiss Roots. Global Reach.
A solid Swiss legal and compliance framework combined with precise local requirements for every country where your plan is offered.
OUR METHODOLOGY
Our Approach
From Strategy to Execution in three clear steps.
Assess
Every project starts from a different place: a plan that no longer fits, a shareholder vote ahead, or simply too many open questions. This step gives you a clear, current picture of where things stand and what to prioritise.
Design
The result is a compensation strategy, reward concepts, salary structures, and incentive plans shaped to your organization’s culture and business objectives.
Execute
What’s on paper gets put into practice: documented, governed, communicated, and correctly implemented across tax, accounting, and every market you operate in.
