You will discover unique roadmaps for producing a large amount of sustainable change in a short period of time. You will take lifelong learning to a whole new level where the important questions are asked and only you hold the answer to just how high you’re committed to climb.

Employee engagement; worker safety; the war for talent ... surely this should be an exceptional time to be employed anywhere in the world. And yet, when we scratch the surface, we so often find workplace abuses, a sense of disengagement, disillusionment, even cynicism, and a pervasive fear - of reprisal, of being held back, even of job loss and the personal and social devastation that can cause. More of us feel more pressure to perform and workplace stress than ever before, resulting in massive hidden costs - absenteeism, loss of productivity, and - more important for the long-term health of the economy - loss of creativity and innovation in parts of our workforce. Today's conversation is on toxic workplaces and how we can recognize them and then detoxify them to create productive, effective, results-oriented and healthy workplaces for everyone.

This must listen to show covers the win-win philosophy of an ESOP conversion, where in a nutshell, the Employees Stock Ownership Purchase Plan is an incredible tool for business owners to cash out some or all of their ownership interest mostly tax-free. It also allows them to share their success with management and employees all with the blessings and the support of the US Government who has been backing the ESOP concept since its adoption by the US Congress in 1974. ESOP implementation is significantly easier to accomplish, dramatically less expensive, not as disruptive to the day-to-day business activities as a standard due diligence process, yet provides an attractive valuation, allows the owner to maintain control and collect the proceeds under very efficient tax exempt guidelines, all while being fully supported by the US Government. Tune in to learn more about the value of this win-win mindset and positioning in business.
