On Employee Ownership
Manage episode 366177489 series 3484593
In this episode our old punks sink their dentures into the question whether Employee Ownership is the route staff engagement and therefore to success. They discuss:
- The woes of the John Lewis department store and whether its employee ownership model is at risk of being undermined by possible new measures
- The perils of picking one or two incentives from the employee ownership world, without going all the way. Those unintended consequences strike again...
- How democratic decision-making processes are increasingly supported by new technologies to benefit from the knowledge of all employees
- That employee-owned doesn't always mean employee-centric
