This #EmployeeOwnershipMonth, Ownership Works is proud to host our third in-person event, the 2024 Shared Ownership CEO & Executive Convening, on October 29 - 30 in New York.

Through #employeeownership, we celebrate workers. We honor their hard work and acknowledge their accomplishments. Now, we're sharing their voices with you.

Every October, we commemorate #EmployeeOwnershipMonth by celebrating the impact of the employee ownership movement. But what exactly is employee ownership? "Employee ownership" is a term for any arrangement in which a company’s employees own shares in their company or the right to the value of shares in their company, according to The National Center for Employee Ownership (NCEO). Employee ownership is a broad concept that can take many forms, ranging from #stockoptions, stock grants, synthetic equity (granting the right to the value of shares but not the shares themselves), #ESOPs, worker cooperatives, and employee ownership trusts. What does #employeeownership mean to you? Let us know in the comments below! Learn more about Ownership Works' mission to advance the employee ownership movement: https://lnkd.in/emngfabX.

What does it mean for a company to embody a culture of #ownership? What does it look like when employees at all levels of an organization feel like owners in their company? Ownership Works will share a video each month highlighting a company’s journey to develop an ownership culture and how #employeeownership transformed the organization. Today, we spotlight Ingersoll Rand, an American multinational company that provides flow creation and industrial products.

Today marks the start of #EmployeeOwnershipMonth, an opportunity to celebrate and recognize the many ways that employee ownership is positively impacting businesses, communities, and the lives of workers across the nation. Broad-based employee ownership can be transformative for companies and life-changing for workers. It’s smarter business, and it’s the right thing to do. As part of Employee Ownership Month, we are launching our #VoicesOfOwnership series to share the voices of workers describing the significant impact that becoming an employee-owner has had on their lives. #EmployeeVoices #OwnershipWorks

To grow the #sharedownership movement, we need the voices of leaders who have witnessed the powerful effects of employee ownership on companies and employees. Last week, Charter Next Generation CEO Kathy Bolhous highlighted Ownership Works — and the impacts of employee ownership at her company — at The Executives' Club of Chicago's Workforce Development Summit.   The event was a gathering of executives dedicated to exchanging strategies, including #employeeownership, that prepare workforces for future challenges and foster resilience and economic mobility.   Ownership Works is grateful to partners like Kathy who help us advance the shared ownership movement!
