Suggest questionIn this episode, we deal with a good overview of how important it is to keep our key people if we want to grow and strengthen the value of the business. Poor Edmund Dante’s - betrayed and put in the dungeon - retained against his will and that would inspire a whole novel/movie around vengeance. We want our retention strategies to leverage positive tools like the ESOP and SAR plans to compel the best folks you have to stay for the long-term - and better yet continue the great culture you have built in your company for the legacy of your business.
About Journey to an ESOP & Beyond
ESOPs are gaining traction. In the "Journey to an ESOP & Beyond” podcast, Phillip Hayes explains the process of the ESOP transaction and addresses ESOPs from a business owner’s perspective. The "ESOP Guy" illuminates the simplicity of ESOPs as he debunks common misconceptions that ESOPs are immensely costly and complicated.
