New Belgium Brewery’s employees think like owners. Because they are.
Alex Brill was quoted in Fast Company for his research on tax policy effects on business:
“… [Brill] has found that employees in ESOPs “get better at the job, and instead of quitting as soon as they get skills, they stay and get more skills.” Companies with ESOPs require fewer managers, as AEI’s Brill discovered in his research, because workers are given more freedom and are better able to manage themselves.”
