Every firm has a system. Most partners believe theirs is broadly fair. And yet, in partnership after partnership, compensation remains the permanent source of friction, debated endlessly, adjusted repeatedly, and never resolved. The reason is not the formula. It is everything the formula ignores.
This book examines what compensation systems actually do, as opposed to what their designers intend. Why do eat-what-you-kill and lockstep models generate the same tensions despite opposite assumptions? Why does rewarding top performers so rarely make them stay? Why does tinkering with the formula reliably crowd out the strategic conversations that matter most?
Drawing on decades of direct consulting experience across North America, Europe, Latin America, and Asia, Jaap Bosman and Jaime Fernández Madero cover the full landscape: the psychology of fairness and inequity aversion; origination credit battles and the rainmaker myth; modified lockstep and black box systems; the role of compensation in succession and generational transition; the arrival of private equity and what it changes; and the long-term disruption of AI.
The book does not offer a universal formula, because none exists. It offers something more useful: the analytical tools and the right questions to design a system that serves your firm's strategy rather than undermining it.
Essential reading for managing partners, compensation committees, and anyone responsible for keeping a partnership intact.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.

To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.

The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
