Contract Negotiation Services for High Income Professionals
If you are a physician, an executive, or a professional being recruited by a business, we offer coaching through the entire process. We discuss strategy, and can either negotiate on your behalf or guide you through the review of the contract to make sure the terms you land are aligned with your life motivators and values. We seek to help you achieve Total Value Maximization™ of your contract.
The Vestia Total Value Maximization Approach
Go beyond just the basic legal and financial concerns with the Vestia Total Value Maximization™ Approach. Ensure that the lifestyle your contract creates alignment among your resources (talent and skills), your motivators and values, and your broader objectives in life.

Total Value Maximization™ Wins for an Orthopedic Surgeon:

Using our approach, an orthopedic surgeon turned down a multi-million dollar partnership opportunity with his practice in favor of a salary of $800,000 because it meant call times reduced by 40 percent and a far stronger quality of life. The Total Value Maximization™ approach helped him clarify what mattered most to him.

Total Value Maximization™ Wins by Providing Confidence for a Female Surgeon:

A breast cancer surgeon lacked confidence in the negotiation process. She didn’t have a framework for how to advocate for herself. Prior to the Total Value Maximization™ process, she was ready to accept an offer for 15 percent less than the going market rate. After coaching her on what to ask for, she was able to increase her rate to align with her anticipated RVUs.

Total Value Maximization™ Wins for a Seasoned Executive:

A corporate executive gave up a Fortune 75 position in order to join a VC-backed entity primed to go public. In doing so, the Total Value Maximization™ contract negotiation provided him with greater potential upside in equity gain while still maintaining comparable salary. Our approach ensured he could maintain his standard of living while providing the opportunity to realize his greater goal of early retirement and increasing the life side of his work/life balance.

Total Value Maximization™ Wins for a Professional Partner:
A professional was unhappy with his travel times away from home. With the
Total Value Maximization™ framework
, he figured out how to sell his ownership interest in order to start a new firm that better aligned with his family’s values and eliminated more than 100 nights per year of travel away from his family.
