Based on research about Human Resources Management, Performance Management and Compensation, on the analysis of the club’s current Performance Evaluation model and on interviews pursued with every member of the department, some KPIs were set up to boost scouts’ future performance and to create the new compensation model. To investigate the suitability of equity compensation in the model and in the industry, additional analysis was developed.engHuman resources managementKey performance indicatorsFootball industryCompensation policyPerformance evaluationPerformance managementIncentivesEquity compensationFootball scouting department evaluation and compensation model applied to SL Benfica - equity compensationmaster thesis202997871
