Reimagining equity to build wealth for all.
About us
Ownership Works is a new nonprofit organization that partners with companies and investors to provide all employees with the opportunity to build wealth at work. Through partnerships, network-building, education, data, and storytelling, we’re inspiring a groundswell of interest among business leaders and investors to provide all employees with the opportunity to participate in the value they help create. Ownership Works brings together an unprecedented consortium of corporations, foundations, investors, labor advocates and pension funds that recognize the power of employee ownership to unlock new levels of success for companies while creating a pathway to wealth creation for workers. Through movement building and hands-on guidance, Ownership Works envisions a future in which broad-based employee ownership is the new norm at work. At scale, we believe employee ownership can help millions of lower-income workers and people of color build savings and wealth, often for the first time, at businesses that are more dynamic, resilient, and successful. In 2024, Ownership Works was certified as a Great Place To Work!

On July 23, Ownership Works hosted the Ford Foundation and its staff from across the globe – including Africa, Asia, and Central America – for a grantee site visit in New York City. The Ford Foundation team spent the morning learning more about our mission to make shared ownership the new normal across corporate America, followed by a lunch with the O.W. team. Ford Foundation's global team gathers once every two years to conduct grantee site visits. It was an honor and privilege to host the Ford Foundation, an early and critical partner to O.W., and meet their incredible global team! The Ford Foundation says #OwnershipWorks! A special thank you to our speakers Margot Brandenburg from Ford Foundation, Buff Kavelman from The Kavelman Group, Alix Dunn from Wella Company, Graham Thomas from KKR, and Melissa Bukuru, Emily Carpenter, Michael McHugh, and Anna-Lisa Miller from Ownership Works!

It was a new area for some of us but everyone came away excited to think about how this powerful tool can be applied in our respective sectors and regions. A huge thank you to OW team members Michael McHugh Anna-Lisa Miller Emily Carpenter Melissa Bukuru and Claire Shapanka for their amazing hospitality, and a special thanks to Graham Thomas of KKR and Alix Dunn of Wella Company for taking the time to share how this works in practice.

Employee wellbeing among workers under 35 fell in 2023 – the first time in about five years, according to Gallup’s newly published State of the Global Workplace for 2024 report. This troubling downturn in #employeewellbeing has numerous consequences. For companies, low employee wellbeing is associated with higher rates of #turnover, absenteeism, and loss of #productivity. It also harms the health and happiness of workers in their personal lives. Learn more about how Ownership Works helps organizations create work environments where employees feel more engaged, energized, and appreciated through #employeeownership: https://lnkd.in/dEZvTc_J.
