Linking managerial compensation to shareholder performance aligns the interests of managers with those of shareholders, as managers are incentivized to maximize the company's value. This reduces the agency problem by promoting accountability, as managers are rewarded for making decisions that benefit shareholders. Additionally, performance-based incentives can motivate managers to focus on long-term growth and profitability, further aligning their goals with those of the shareholders. Overall, this linkage fosters a cooperative relationship that mitigates conflicts of interest.

Customers want a better quality of products and a cheaper price. Society wants businesses to use environmentally friendly materials. Workers want a secure job and maybe a high pay...

the difference between Profit maximisation and share price maximisation
When you hold a share of a company, you are an investor in the company. You have invested your money in the company and it is the prime goal of the company's management to ensure that they earn sufficient revenue and profit for you "the investor" who has invested in the company.
