The Cygnal Group consultants have excellent project management and client management skills. They are professional and task oriented but with a great sense of perspective and the ability to quickly make realistic assessments of client issues. They are very effective communicators, and great listeners.

“Compensation plans are all about driving behavior and The Cygnal Group understood our business thoroughly in order to drive maximum value from our plans. I would never use anyone else for compensation design.”

— Brenda Hodge, Vice President, Sales Operations, Allscripts

Everyone on the Design Team said we had hit a home run. They could not have been more impressed, nor could the project have been more successful. In fact, the team wants me to talk with you about spending a day with our CEO and President once we have our thinking a little further along. I cannot thank you enough for your work on our behalf. It’s clear how much you love what you do!

– John Gwynn, Director, Human Resources, Viewpointe Archive Services

Spend 10 minutes with a Cygnal Group consultant, and you will see that they are outstanding compensation specialists. I am glad to recommend them without hesitation. They have been on retainer for almost two years (so far) and during this time, they have provided timely support when needed, and helped us through two major incentive compensation changes. They are professional, nice people, fun and experts in their field.

– Gayle Kirkeby, VP Sales, Prometric

“Thanks to the analysis and best practice recommendations of The Cygnal Group, we got agreement from all three divisions to make the changes needed to really improve the motivational value of our plans. I can’t thank the Cygnal Group consultants enough for all of their help. They worked really well, together with our internal team, and did some pretty magical things.”

— VP Human Resources, major telecommunications provider

“We couldn’t have gotten our new plans together for the merged sales organization without The Cygnal Group’s support. The HR leadership team didn’t believe me when I told them the Cygnal Group could make this happen . . . they’re believers now.”

— Kyle Matthews, VP Human Resources, FMC Agricultural Solutions

“The Cygnal Group consultants are among the best Compensation professionals I have ever worked with. They love their work and always have the client’s best interest at heart. SALES COMP is their thing and they know it inside-out.”

— David Moff, SPHR, CEO of The HR Group
