My co-founder and I started this company with such clear shared values about worker equity and now we're at the stage where we need to make actual decisions about stock options and profit sharing and we're realizing we have completely different ideas about what 'fair' looks like. We keep having the same circular conversation where we both think we're being reasonable and the other person is being naive.
More people experience this than they realize.
Two people who thought they shared the same values are discovering that translating principles into practice reveals fundamental differences in how they understand fairness and power.
