Don: <<the pattern is there if you look for it>> Sometimes the 'looking for it' imposes patterns where there are none. I looked around for some unbiased academic research and found some stuff that sort of gets at it, but none that really answers the question. One item indicated that compensation was highly associated with CEO charisma, but not well related to performance.
My guess is that over a broad sample compensation would be relatively uncorrolated with future performance, but somewhat positively correlated with past performance...but that's just a guess at this point.
I suspect there's going to be market driven forces that will put the brakes excessive compensation as it comes more to light that compensations doesn't buy performance and isn't really needed for retention...but again just a guess.
