Passionate Advocate for Employee Ownership. šŸŽ¤The ESOP Podcast šŸŽ¤The ESOP Minicast šŸ”—www.esoppodcast.com ā€¼ļøThe EO Podcast Network launches Sept. ā€˜21ā€¼ļø Employee Ownership (EO) is: ESOPS ā€” Co-ops ā€” Collectives Facts: āœ… There are 14 million employee owners in the United States. āœ… 2+ million employee owners are at privately held companies. āœ… EO creates shareholders, spreading wealth among more people. āœ… EO companies retained employees at a 3-4 x greater rate than non-EO companies during the pandemic. āœ… There is less pay disparity for women and POC in EO companies than non-EO companies. [This shouldnā€™t still be a thing anywhere, regardless of the business.] āœ… EO strengthens its communities and the tax base. EO companies are less likely to sell to a competitor, thereby eliminating jobs, etc. āœ… EO helps to build the assets of low to moderate income earners. Who I want to talk/listen to and learn from: ā€¼ļøEmployee Owners, EO advocates & service providers ā€¼ļøAdvocates/service providers working in adjacent spaces, such as: communities, jobs, employee engagement, democratic workplaces, equitable wealth and earnings distributions, corporate governance, etc. If thereā€™s an issue important to you, EO may help address it. ā€¼ļøBusiness Owners, entrepreneurs, and founders who are interested in selling all or part of their business, while ensuring their legacy. ā€¼ļø Exit and succession planners, wealth managers, financial planners, business and employment lawyers, etc., who want to learn about a possible path to offer their clients. ā¤ļø I followed you because you said something that resonated with me or your bio spoke to me.
