Research on executive compensation packages clearly demonstrates that the general public is incensed and outraged by, what they perceive to be, excessive pay and benefits for these professionals. Throughout the course of the twentieth century organizations have argued that executive pay and benefits are determined by the actions of the executive as they relate to the performance of the organization. However, a more integral look at the issue of performance demonstrates that while investors believe performance should be directly linked to the financial development of the organization, executive committees that structure executive compensation packages performance refers to a host of issues that lie outside of the financial development of the organization. In an attempt to elucidate these issues, this investigation considers a review of the specific issues that are taken into consideration in developing executive pay and benefit packages.
