Competing on Total Comp, Not Just Salary

06-25-26 | 4:00 PM MT

Episode Description


Most employers try to win talent with a bigger number on the offer letter — and lose the people who can do the math on everything else.


On this Behind the Quote episode, Kody King and Jon Knudson break down how to compete on total compensation instead of salary alone: what candidates actually weigh when they compare offers, which benefits punch above their cost in a hiring decision, and how a mid-market or self-funded employer wins talent without outbidding the giants on base pay.


We're inviting HR leaders, CFOs, and benefits consultants to join as panelists. Sign up to be a guest and bring the offer you won — or lost — on total comp.
