SSR On Air: Welcome to ESOPtober
Every colleague at SSR contributes to our overall success through building strong relationships, executing for our clients, and owning the growth of our firm. As a 100% ESOP-owned firm, when we all contribute, we all succeed. In celebration of ESOP month — called ESOPtober — we pause to celebrate this collective effort and the impact it has on our firm’s culture. Join us as Mike talks with guests Tim Priddy, Andy Brophy, and Karen Espensen about the evolution of SSR’s ESOP and the newly formed Employee Ownership Council (EOC).
The EOC has formed two committee, education and events, with three goals:
- Celebrate ownership and generate employee engagement for “ownership thinking”
- Convey advantages of being part of an employee-owned company to all colleagues
- Educate colleagues on basic structure and benefits of our ESOP
