Every ESOP is different, and there is no one-size-fits-all approach to ESOP sustainability. An ESOP Sustainability Study provides a company with an integrated tool to align policy decisions with corporate strategic goals, ultimately allowing management to focus on value-creating opportunities. This webinar will share a recent ESOP sustainability case study, as well as communicate recent trends.
Learning Objectives
1. Understand the board of directors’ considerations and concerns going into the sustainability study.
2. Discover additional considerations uncovered by Prairie’s team in the case study.
3. Explore the case study company's actions resulting from Prairie’s analysis.
