Who Should Own Your Business After You?

Thousands of business owners have decided that employee ownership is the best way to preserve the job security of their workforces and protect the character of their companies while providing them and their families fair value for the sale of the business. Learn more on this page.

The National Center for Employee Ownership (NCEO) is a nonprofit organization founded in 1981 that provides education and resources to employee-owned companies and those considering employee ownership.

Our Who Should Own Your Business After You? booklet is the best starting point to learn about employee ownership. Seven business owners who have successfully transitioned their businesses to EO tell their stories in their own words. The 12-page booklet answers frequent questions, describes the sale process, and features key research findings on the impact of employee ownership.

This booklet can help you get started on making a decision about whether employee ownership is right for you and your company. We welcome you to circulate the booklet to anyone you think might benefit from a powerful introduction to employee ownership.
