Mini-cast 238: Ideas for Employee Ownership Month

Bret Keisling shares great ideas for celebrating Employee Ownership Month (EOM), including: company-wide parties that highlight company and employee owner milestones (don't forget the pie!); inviting elected officials and journalists to visit the company and its owners; arrange presentations by ESOP and co-op service providers to educate owners; and sponsoring contests to design posters, t-shirts, or even holiday and New Year's greeting cards with an employee ownership theme. Also, Bret shares highlights from EOM's origin. The former head of The ESOP Association (TEA), Michael Keeling, credits The National Center for Employee Ownership (NCEO) founder Corey Rosen with the idea and promoting it and turning it into the great celebration we have today.
