A great piece released connecting the Ownership Economy with Labor Day. Please take a read.
Today, I have released a policy brief focused on the Ownership Economy, in partnership with five other Ashoka Fellows, each of whose work advances a key Ownership strategy: Frank Altman, Brandon Dennison, Bree Jones, Molly Hemstreet and Dr. Tim Lampkin and with Michael Zakaras of Ashoka U.S.. Together, we aim to lift up the importance of Ownership on Labor Day, and to highlight some ways to leverage federal policy to help Ownership address the deep economic inequality that wage growth alone cannot solve. https://lnkd.in/gJ8M2azX #ownershipeconomy, #employeeownership, #homeownership, #ashoka
