@MattOrsagh From the referenced Triodos article; “[steward ownership] breaks the link between financial profit and corporate control, to ensure that the pursuit of profit does not become more important than the mission of a company.“
I’m not entirely convinced. Feels like a bit of an unnecessarily complicated governance structure. Wouldn’t making the company a not-for-profit worker co-op achieve the same result, with the added benefit of the workers’ receiving the full value of their labour?
@Brendanjones Yeah, I think your right for most companies. But I think this is a model for bigger more complicated companies. How do you make Coca-Cola a co-op?
