BCM Model

Balanced Compensation Model

Talent, commitment, and belonging also get paid!

A compensation system that acknowledges three core values: belonging, performance, and talent. It guides professionals from traditional employment to collective entrepreneurship with structure and safety.

BCM provides a smooth transition from conventional jobs to collaborative self-managed teams. It distinguishes three kinds of value creation: sustaining the team (belonging), delivering results (performance), and fostering growth (talent).

Each pillar contributes to a diversified income model, balancing stability and aspiration. It nurtures long-term motivation and professional evolution.
