Please note that this session will be hosted on Zoom.
What’s it about?
This virtual event is an introduction to employee ownership. We will be looking at employee ownership in the context of the practical, financial and ethical benefits the approach can give, with experts in law, tax and cultural change for organisations. Employee ownership can provide a tax-efficient option in succession planning for current business owners, but also a strategy for promoting employee engagement. During the session, we will provide an overview of why employee ownership should be considered as:
- a strategy for giving employees a voice in your business
- a genuine and realistic alternative to the traditional business sale or management buy-out
It will also show how, if done properly, employee ownership can be a catalyst to future success for the business.
Who should attend?
Any business owner looking to give their employees a voice in their business and democratise the decision-making process. Business owners that are or may be looking to exit their business in the short or medium term. In particular, business owners with an interest in ethical business and exiting their business in a way that protects their legacy and takes the interests of their employees into consideration.
