"Let's distribute the wealth." - Jennifer Williams

In this episode of The Road to Seven, Shelagh Cummins is joined by Jennifer Williams, founder of Firefly Insights, to discuss the transformative concept of employee ownership as a viable succession plan. With recent legislative changes in Canada supporting employee ownership trusts, Jennifer explores how this model not only enhances business performance but also addresses economic inequities. 

She shares her journey from nonprofit work to becoming a passionate advocate for equitable ownership, emphasizing the impact on communities and wealth redistribution. This insightful conversation also highlights the unique challenges women face in business, the importance of self-care, and how community support fuels success.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

  • How employee ownership can serve as a transformative succession plan.
  • The benefits of wealth redistribution for businesses and communities.
  • Challenges and opportunities for women entrepreneurs in finance and leadership.
  • Why self-care is essential for sustaining growth and balance.
  • Insights on creating a more equitable and high-performing workplace.

This episode will inspire you to think differently about succession planning, wealth redistribution, and creating a legacy that benefits both your business and your community.
