My work on contracts studies what drives pay differences between managers and workers, and whether additional information on worker performance helps firms write sharper contracts.
Theory
- Employee compensation in synergistic firms (Edmans, Goldstein, Zhu 2013)
- How improved information on performance affects incentives (Chaigneau, Edmans, Gottlieb JFE 2018)
- The value of performance signals under limited liability (Chaigneau, Edmans, Gottlieb 2017b)
- Informativeness principle without first-order approach (Chaigneau, Edmans, Gottlieb GEB 2019)
