By considering Phelps' curve, the best disagreement point (BATNA) and the gains of negotiation, we examine what a fair distribution of executive wages should be. Beyond equality and Rawls' maximin, we focus on equality-of-gains (Nash) and on relative-equality-of-gains (Kalai-Smorodinsky). Equality-of-gains is close to maximin; executives may not accept to bargain. Relative-equality-of-gains allows executives and workers to obtain equal gains in percentage; executive compensation is not intolerably high to the price of a higher total payroll.
