I was thinking tonight on ... (Apr 19 2004 04:54 GMT) - I was thinking tonight on my way home about how the best business model, from my perspective, and potentially realistic in this day and age, would be to have a company founded on the equity of ideas. Each initial member starts out with an equal share. As long as that individual keeps up with contributing to the company with ideas or execution or both, he or she keeps her shares. If that individual, in the eyes of other shareholders, does not contribute to the growth of the company, he or she either gets no additional shares, or is possibly, in the most dire, freeloader situations, gets stripped of those shares by a two-thirds vote of other shareholders, with compensation for those shares based on the market value at the last point at which that person was making a postive contribution, as evinced either by increased number of shares, or by the fact that the person got a vote of no confidence a certain number of votes in a row, over a period of time. That partially changes the equation to a direct measure of what value the person is bringing into the company, rather than an articificial monetary measure, albeit potentially with real dollars associated with it. |
