Can you build a legacy, empower your team, and still grow your bottom line? 💼❤️
In this powerful episode, we explore how Employee Stock Ownership Plans (ESOPs) can transform not just businesses but lives. I’m joined by Kelly Finnell, President of EFS ESOP Consultants and one of the nation’s top ESOP experts, with over 300 talks and 14 publications to his name.
With more than 40 years of experience, Kelly offers deep insights into how ESOPs work, when to consider them, and why they’re one of the most meaningful tools for ownership succession. We explore the heart of compassionate capitalism—where profits and people are not at odds, but aligned—and discuss how business owners can create lasting legacies by sharing ownership with the people who helped build the company.
🎧 Business with heart? This episode’s for you—owners, entrepreneurs, and purpose-driven changemakers.
