Why our Partner Remuneration System Diagnostic?

Conducting our Partner Remuneration Diagnostic provides a clear picture of the strengths and vulnerabilities of your partner compensation system – and provides you with a baseline to measure future improvements.

Based on our 20+ years of advising partnerships, we have identified six key drivers for successful partner compensation systems. Our diagnostic measures these drivers and indicates where to focus change.

The world’s most successful partnerships recognize that the system of how partners share profits has a direct impact on firm performance – improving profitable growth, key talent retention and service innovation. Yet often it’s unclear what changes are needed.

Our Partner Remuneration Diagnostic is the baseline that guides your firm to make the right decisions that will improve firm performance.

Strategic foundations
Financial outcomes
Contribution management
Measures and Key Performance Indicators (KPIs)
