Employee wellbeing among workers under 35 fell in 2023 – the first time in about five years, according to Gallup’s newly published State of the Global Workplace for 2024 report. This troubling downturn in #employeewellbeing has numerous consequences. For companies, low employee wellbeing is associated with higher rates of #turnover, absenteeism, and loss of #productivity. It also harms the health and happiness of workers in their personal lives.  Learn more about how Ownership Works helps organizations create work environments where employees feel more engaged, energized, and appreciated through #employeeownership: https://lnkd.in/dEZvTc_J. 

The team at Ownership Works plays a pivotal role in our mission to advance #sharedownership as the new norm at work. We invite you to learn more about the staff members who drive this work in our new “Behind Ownership Works” series. We’re kicking off this series with our Founding Executive Director, Anna-Lisa Miller. "Leading Ownership Works is the most rewarding job I’ve ever had," Miller said. "We couldn’t ask for a better Founder, Board, team, and consortium of partners. This is employee ownership’s moment, and it's an honor and privilege to do this work!” Meet the rest of the team at Ownership Works: https://lnkd.in/e2azUrbs. #BehindOwnershipWorks

Last week, Ownership Works’ Founding Executive Director, Anna-Lisa Miller, participated in a panel at Financial Health Network’s 2024 #EMERGE Conference in Chicago. The panel, “Making FinHealth the New Norm,” examined how emerging financial health solutions, like emergency savings and employee ownership models, are improving financial health in the workplace. Anna-Lisa Miller was joined by co-panelists Claire Chamberlain, Managing Director, Global Head of Social Impact at BlackRock, and Sarah Kalloch, Executive Director of Good Jobs Institute. The panel was moderated by Matthew Bahl, Vice President, Workplace Market Lead of Financial Health Network. Thank you to Financial Health Network for facilitating conversations about this incredibly important topic!

Low engagement among employees is the norm – not the exception – for most companies. But KKR and Ownership Works are championing a powerful approach to attracting and retaining employees at all levels of the company: investing in #EmployeeEngagement and #OwnershipCulture through shared ownership.    While there is no rigid rulebook for creating an ownership culture, KKR has seen great outcomes follow from eight key practices, which they outline in their latest report, “Creating an Ownership Culture.”    Read the full report: https://lnkd.in/eTj7q2zF. #EmployeeOwnership
