ABOUT
Why Gainshares
There is a growing movement for incentive plans that treat all employees, not just management, like owners.
The reason is that these plans are producing exceptional outcomes for employees, managers, and investors. Just look at KKR. Or Blackstone. Or one of the largest accounting staff firms in the world.​
​
If your business doesn't look like those, that's why we created Gainshares. We adapt the design principles of those big business plans to unlock success for small business owners. ​
​
Let's partner and unlock ownership culture in your business.​
