Better partner reward metrics in the age of AI

Most partner scorecards are linked to strategy, yet in practice, production still wins. Our 2026 Equity Partner Contribution and Compensation Survey shows revenue and originations still drive reward, with profit a distant third. Only 21% of firm leaders say their system encourages partners to experiment with AI.

On 8 December at 12pm UK time, Ray D’Cruz, CEO of Performance Leader will be joined by Michael Roch and Paul Eagland to discuss how firms can truly and smartly balance the scorecard, with metrics that reward what the firm’s strategy depends on: profit, collaboration, innovation and more.
‍

Michael Roch founded MHPR Advisors and co-authored The Partner Remuneration Handbook with Ray D’Cruz. For more than 25 years, he has advised hundreds of firms worldwide on partner compensation, profit-sharing design and reward governance.

Paul Eagland was Managing Partner of BDO UK until October 2024, where he oversaw the performance and reward management process for over 500 partners. In 38 years at BDO, he led both its national tax and audit streams before becoming Managing Partner.
