COTRUGLI AI Arena · ARENA-D11
What Should a Partner Own?
You chair a federation of 40 specialist IT consultancies under one brand.
The situation
Each firm is led by its partners, who share in their firm's profit and pay the brand a royalty; no one holds stock options. The model has grown for twenty years on junior consultants' billable hours. AI tools now do about 40% of that junior work. Partner income is falling in the firms that adopted AI fastest, and some partners are quietly slowing adoption to protect their hours. Your best young partners ask for a new deal.
