Communicating the Valuation Process to Employees

Live Webinar :: July 23, 2008 :: Free for NCEO Members

In many companies, the valuation process is a black box—failure to understand valuation blocks thev line of site between employees’ day-to-day activity and the value of their ESOP accounts. In order to tap the power of their ESOPs, companies need people to have a basic understanding of how valuation works and what aspects of the value employees can affect. This session gives a user-friendly overview of valuation, including basic concepts and highlights of valuation methods. We’ll also talk about tools and techniques to communicate effectively about valuation in your own company, including actual examples of ways that some companies communicate about valuation to their work force. This session is appropriate for people who want a better understanding of valuation basics and also for people who will be doing their company’s internal valuation communication.
