Over the past few months, The ESOP Association has been conducting an expansive market research study looking into attitudes toward ESOPs and employee ownership. Our goal for this ambitious project is to help ESOPs and professional service providers gain an edge in both internal and external communications through data-driven messaging that resonates with target audiences. We are just now starting to receive and analyze the results from this first-of-its-kind study, and we will release the initial findings and key takeaways at next week’s National Conference in Washington, DC.

In the rapidly evolving business landscape, employee stock ownership plans (ESOPs) have emerged as a pivotal strategy for fostering an engaged and motivated workforce. The heart of successfully navigating the ESOP ecosystem lies within the effective communication strategies deployed by an organization. At the forefront of these strategies are ESOP Communication Committees, whose role extends far beyond mere information dissemination. These committees are instrumental in creating, building, and sustaining education, alongside driving cultural improvements within employee-owned companies.

The most common comments I hear from ESOP Advocacy Day attendees before participating are some version of “I’m not sure what to do/say” or “It’s a little intimidating.”
The most common refrains I hear after Advocacy Day: “This was easy and really fun” and “I can’t wait to do it again next year!” I encourage you to join ESOP Advocacy Day whether it’s your first time or you’ve been doing it for years.
