Overview
Administrative roles at employee-owned companies play a pivotal role in supporting the organization's success while embracing a culture of shared ownership. Administrators are responsible for efficient operations and hold a direct stake in the company's achievements through shared ownership.
Administrative jobs typically require strong organizational skills, effective communication abilities, proficiency in office software, and the capacity to handle diverse tasks efficiently. Administrative expertise combined with ownership culture fosters a cohesive, motivated, and empowered workforce, driving the company's overall efficiency and success.
Employee Ownership
Employee ownership changes the relationship between the company and employee. Today there are 6,400 employee-owned companies in America.
Wealth Building
Working at an employee-owned company provides tremendous wealth-building benefits beyond conventional roles. Employee-owned companies provide every employee with reasonable access to ownership through broad-based structures such as Employee Stock Ownership Plans (ESOPs), Employee Ownership Trusts (EOTs), or even Direct Share Ownership Plans (DSOPs).
Ownership aligns interests and encourages wealth accumulation as the company thrives, enhancing the financial security of the employee-owners and positively impacting the culture of the business.
Ownership Culture
Broad-based ownership creates alignment, fosters commitment, increases collaboration, and drives innovation. Giving employees a direct financial stake in the success of the company incentivizes efficiency, leads to improved decision-making, and increases customer satisfaction. The shared responsibility created by an ownership culture strengthens the company’s performance, which benefits employees through shared ownership.
