Succession Planning Without Regret? ESOPs Versus Other Forms of Sale

April 10, 2024 2:00 PM

Presenters
Stephen Arnold and Tyler Mains

Description
Selling a company to the employees through an ESOP (Employee Stock Option Plan) is an increasingly popular succession plan. How do ESOPs work for seller(s), employees, management and the company? What are the benefits and drawbacks of an ESOP? And how do they compare to third-party sales and management buyouts?

Join us on April 10 at 2 p.m. (ET) as Stephen Arnold and Tyler Mains lay out the details of ESOP to help companies make sustainable, informed decisions about the future.

Effortless Accountability: Pipe Dream or Possibility?

Description
Every manager craves the opportunity to lead a group of people who take ownership of their work — who are naturally and consistently accountable. However, what managers typically fail to understand is accountability is not something one demands; rather, it is a process you create! In this presentation, Kelly reveals how effective leaders follow a specific three-step process to create a culture of accountability.
