Our focus is on clarity and support, ensuring a smooth transition that sets your company up for lasting success. Together, we’ll build a thriving future for everyone involved.
Initial Consultation
We start with a no obligation consultation, discussing your business needs and goals and how Firefly Insights can help.
Identify the Model
We get to know you as an organization; everything from your company culture and goals to your structure and numbers. We talk to owners, management and employees to get a holistic view of your organization. Then we identify an employee ownership structure that will meet your unique needs.
Implement the Model
Our experience in employee owned companies (as both employees and owners, with 10 years of experience designing and implementing Employee Ownership for companies in a range of industries) means that we know what it takes to create success in an employee ownership transition.
Education and Engagement
Transitioning to Employee Ownership is a cultural shift, and as with any major change project, it needs time, education, and engagement to succeed. We are here to support you through it all.
