Learning Objective

  • To identify the challenges and opportunities associated with the "Silver Tsunami" and its impact on small business ownership transitions.
  • To gain a deep understanding of various employee ownership models, including ESOPs, worker cooperatives, and Employee Ownership Trusts (EOTs).
  • To identify employee ownership types, features, benefits, advantages, and limitations.
  • To determine and recommend appropriate employee ownership options to clients when a fit with a client’s needs.
  • To analyze and engage additional employee ownership advisor partners when missing technical expertise.

Course Overview

Are you prepared for the "Silver Tsunami"? In the United States, we are currently witnessing a demographic phenomenon known as the "Silver Tsunami," where a wave of baby boomer business owners is nearing retirement. This presents unique challenges, especially for small business owners who may not have interested family members to pass the business on to or those whose revenue isn't attractive to private equity buyers. If you're an exit planner, Certified Public Accountant (CPA), Certified Exit Planning Advisor (CEPA), or a stakeholder interested in small business ownership transitions, this webinar will provide you with a high-level overview of this critical issue.

As a small business advisor or service provider, expanding your knowledge and skill set is essential to offer your clients effective exit and succession planning strategies. Employee ownership is emerging as a viable option, offering an innovative solution for small business owners. In this CPE Finance webinar, we aim to inspire and activate exit planners, business advisors, and service providers. By promoting employee ownership, we can meet the growing demand for this approach and equip exit professionals with the tools to facilitate it.

The primary objective of this online course is to empower advisors to identify, educate, and refer small business clients to the most suitable employee ownership structure. This includes Employee Stock Ownership Plans (ESOPs), worker cooperatives, and Employee Ownership Trusts (EOTs). We'll also explore the numerous advantages of employee ownership, such as enhanced employee recruitment, retention, and engagement, which contribute to the preservation of quality jobs and the cultivation of an ownership culture. 

Major Topics:

  • Silver Tsunami Challenges
  • Employee Ownership Models
  • Types, Features, and Benefits of Employee Ownership
  • Recommending Ownership Options
  • Engaging Employee Ownership Advisors

Join us for this CPE course, and gain insights that can lead to stronger companies, accelerated growth, and increased profits. It will ensure that you stay ahead in your field while fostering greater employee ownership awareness and boosting your practice's revenue and client retention.

Lewis Denbaum, CPA (US)

One the the best my-cpe webinars I have ever taken. She didn't rely exclusively on her slides and spoke in a conversational tone rather than boring lecture mode. I found the topic very interest and eye-opening. She did an excellent job explaining the three methods of employee ownership---how the methods were similar and how they were different.

I loved this instructor, she kept the goals of both the viewer and the potential client in mind. She gave an excellent and easy to follow summary of the different types of employee ownership and made me curious to learn more.
