Description

Hello! This episode, like the companies we're talking about, is owned by everyone who works for it. Cooperative ownership allows the workers to own a stake in the businesses they're working for, allowing them more autonomy and reward for its successes and the understanding and responsibility to help when it's failing. Our guests Joe Guinan from the Democracy Collaborative and Ander Etxeberria from Mondragon Corporation share examples of where this has worked, for the workers, the community and everyone the businesses serve.ANDComedy duo Helen & Ellie from the Scummy Mummies podcast bring us maternity/paternity service, micro-chipped dog shit, relationship MOTs, public transport badges/badgers & political funding transparency Hosted on Acast.
