404 - Total Rewards Strategy: Aligning HR Strategy with Financial Reality
Stop treating your budget as an enemy and start using it as a strategic advantage. In this interactive panel discussion, leaders from finance, HR, and health actuarial/benefits come together to explore how actuarial insight and cross-functional collaboration—rather than competition—can unlock smarter, evidence-based investments in compensation, health and welfare benefits, development, and wellness programs. Panelists share real-world perspectives on using claims and utilization trends, plan design levers, and total rewards forecasting to align people priorities with financial discipline—helping organizations improve retention, engagement, and performance while managing medical trend, volatility, and long-term cost drivers. Attendees actively participate in the discussion and leave with practical approaches for bridging people goals and profit margins through data-driven benefit strategy, scenario modeling, and ROI measurement.
