Episode 17 – Communicating EO transition news to employees

Listen to Episode 17 of the EOA Podcast, which focuses on how to communicate an employee ownership transition to your team and why it’s important to factor internal comms into your planning as part of the journey to becoming employee owned. We know from speaking to members that the transition process goes more smoothly when communications are planned out and well thought through, ensuring the message really hits home with employees about why the decision has been made, and to help build understanding and increase engagement. To explore this further, this episode showcases three businesses of different sizes and from different sectors that have transitioned to employee ownership more recently to hear how they went about communicating the news, the challenges they faced and lessons they learnt, as well as tips they have for other companies embarking on their own EO journey.
