Employee ownership is one of the most powerful, underutilized tools for founders who want to preserve their company’s mission, reward their teams, and exit without selling out.In this insightful conversation, John Abrams—founder of South Mountain Company and author of From Founder to Future—shares how his decades of experience guiding his business through a successful transition to a worker cooperative gives him unmatched perspective for anyone exploring sustainable business exits. His journey is a blueprint for companies considering succession planning, especially those who want to retain values, empower teams, and build lasting community impact.Whether you’re asking:“What’s the best way to exit my business without losing its soul?”“How do ESOPs, co-ops, or an employee ownership trust really work?”“Is becoming a B Corp the right move for mission alignment?”...this episode delivers real answers. You’ll gain clarity on the structural options available—from ESOPs, employee ownership trusts, and worker cooperatives, to innovative governance models like the Commonwealth company.
