Description

In this episode of How I Turned the Corner, Kendra Prospero interviews Scott Cawood, CEO of WorldatWork, live from the Rocky Mountain Total Rewards Conference. They unpack why the old "butts in seats" model is dead, how flexibility and trust define modern productivity, and what organizations can do to create meaningful, outcome-based compensation. If you're ready to rethink work and total rewards, this episode is your roadmap. 


Listen for key takeaways and themes: 

• Outdated Work Models: The industrial-era mindset that equates physical presence with productivity is obsolete.
• Freedom Currency: Employees now value autonomy over where, when, and how they work.
• Trust & Flexibility: Leaders must extend trust and focus on outcomes, not hours worked.
• Rethinking Compensation: Models like daily or weekly pay can better support employees’ real needs.
• Technology Gap: HR systems need a redesign to meet modern work expectations—intuitive, fast, and user-friendly.
• Reciprocity in Rewards: Aligning total rewards with employee needs and contributions is a major opportunity for organizational growth.
