"This book is absolutely outstanding. It not only captures the dynamics of the formation and mechanics of a compensation plan, but more importantly, the development of the philosophical aspects that form the foundation of a plan...and that are so important to the longevity of the program. The authors give you an accurate sense of how practices work today, describing the compensation program as a ‘living organism’ that creates a symbiotic relationship with the members of the organization, reflecting their goals, ideals and working relationships. This organizational approach is exactly what you need to understand when developing a successful compensation program." - Harry E. Rubash, MD, Chief of Orthopaedic Surgery, Massachusetts General Hospital, Edith M. Ashley Professor, Harvard Medical School, Boston

Harry E. Rubash, MD, is Chief of Orthopaedic Surgery, Massachusetts General Hospital, and Edith M. Ashley is Professor at Harvard Medical School in Boston.
