The Ownership Effect: An introduction to share schemes

Many UK startups still focus on perks like ping pong and casual Fridays. But do these truly satisfy your team's needs?  

Equity can offer something deeper - a real stake in your company's success. And by giving your team skin in the game, you motivate them to stay and align their efforts with your business goals.

In this session, we'll look at how to attract, retain and motivate talent using equity; the key questions to ask and the pitfalls to avoid. We'll particularly focus on issues surrounding tax and conditionality.

Date: Tuesday 17 September 2024
Time: 12 noon

Why share equity with your team?

Ramp up overall business growth

Sharing equity creates a stronger team that works harder and is committed to the business.

Increase organisational productivity

Employees with equity work harder, because their growth is tied to the growth of the company.

Motivate your team to perform

Conditional equity agreements get the best out of your team and helps you hit your growth targets.

Improve employee engagement

The more all employees feel included in the success of the business, the more they’re motivated to contribute.

Retain and incentivise your best talent

Share schemes are proven to increase employee retention. Keep hold of your top talent using equity.

Offset high market salary with equity

It's a costly and lengthy process to hire for high-in-demand roles. Sharing equity gives them a reason to stay.
