À propos du livre
This collection of case studies shows a range of examples of how specific businesses have converted from traditional business structures to become worker owned. This is an important reference for businesses considering converting to a worker coop, as well as any individual who would like to learn more about the specifics of the worker cooperative conversions.
We hope these case studies of businesses that have converted to worker cooperatives from other business forms will help inspire and inform other businesses that may be considering, or are in the process of doing the same. For each case study, we have pulled out the motivations for becoming a coop, the logistics of the conversion and of the coop itself, challenges, key lessons and effective practices. The publication includes:
- Business Readiness Factors: Help businesses figure out how ready they are, and how they can set themselves up for a smoother and more successful transition to worker ownership
- Motivations: Core reasons that business owners and employees decide to convert to a worker coop
- Typology of Conversions: Four different types of worker coop conversions based on the situation of the owner and its employees
- Case Studies: A dozen case studies of businesses that have converted to worker cooperatives
