Webinar Details
It's no secret that every year seems to bring with it new disruptions, each one presenting fresh challenges that we, as individuals and the companies we work for, have to navigate. This year, 2026, is no different--global conflicts, escalating energy prices, inflation, and the ubiquity of AI, all require companies to adapt. This conversation will explore how employee-owned companies in various industries and environments are dealing with these and other challenges, including the ups, downs, and missteps, as well as how they're positioning themselves for future sustainability.
 
 

LEARNING OBJECTIVES

1. Understand the impact of disruptions on employee-owned company operations
2. Discover methods for ensuring culture continuity during uncertain times
3. Explore communications strategies to successfully navigate times of crisis
What are Community Conversations?

What are Community Conversations?

The Community Conversation series brings timely, often urgent topics to the employee ownership community, free of charge and open to the public.  

These discussions last and hour and typically put multiple experts from the community in discussion with each other, with the conversation moderated by an NCEO staff person. These conversations are approached as an opportunity to connect and open a larger dialogue, shifting the focus away from a slides based presentation.

The intention is to create an open exchange of experiences and ideas between the people who live these lessons every day.

Invite a colleague or peer who is not a member of the NCEO to tune in to this Community Conversation!

If you're not yet an NCEO member, this is a great opportunity to see what membership makes possible. NCEO members enjoy access to a full library of ESOP resources, weekly webinars,  discounted event registration & publication prices, learning opportunities throughout the year, the ESOP CFO Peer Network, and much more.
