Aspen is a place for leaders to lift their sights above the possessions which possess them. To confront their own nature as human beings, to regain control over their own humanity by becoming more self-aware, more self-correcting, and hence more self-fulfilling.

  1. Economic Opportunities Program

The Employee Ownership Ideas Forum brings together members of Congress and their staff, government officials, practitioners, researchers, think tanks, philanthropy, investors, and the leaders of employee-owned companies to learn about and discuss the latest in policy, research, finance, and practice. This year’s forum, “Employee Ownership on the Ground,” brought innovative employee share ownership initiatives and speakers from around the country to DC to highlight how this bipartisan approach to improving jobs, wealth creation, and business performance is helping create more equitable economies in states, cities, and rural communities.

We hope you enjoy these three videos from our 2024 event, which we also hosted in partnership with the Rutgers Institute for the Study of Employee Ownership and Profit Sharing. These short highlight reels feature one-on-one insights from some of our speakers and Forum participants, offering their unique perspectives on the following three questions:

How would our communities look different if more people had the opportunity to participate in employee ownership?

Why would so many people prefer to work for an employee-owned company?

What makes you passionate about employee ownership?
