Employee Ownership: In This Together
Stronger Alignment, Better Performance
We invest in our workforce through a broad-based ownership program that includes equity participation, commitment to community contribution and volunteerism, and access to financial literacy education. All of think and act like owners. As all of us grow together, each of us can do more.
Fortifi is part of Ownership Works, a non-profit organization that helps public and private companies implement shared ownership. Employee equity adds another dimension to the compensation we offer our employees.
Ownership Works brings together some of the world’s biggest finance, non-profit, investment and professional-service companies, along with labor advocates and pension funds. All these leading business entities believe in the importance of employee equity.
Employee Ownership in Action
Employee ownership is at the heart of Fortifi culture because it makes business better for everyone involved with the company. Employees feel engaged and empowered. The company benefits from employee input. Everyone understands company performance and takes part in shaping its future. Together, we create greater value for customers and greater involvement for vendors.
Everyone is an owner
We spread ownership to everyone in the company and treat them like business owners. As owners, employees benefit from the equity value of the broader organization and much more.
Everyone has a voice
We provide key information on the business and its performance and give employees a voice in how the company operates and invests.
Everyone
is engaged
We ask questions, encourage transparent discussion and regularly measure engagement. We not only value input from our team members, we act on it.
Everyone is part of the community
We are committed to contributing in a positive way to the communities where we do business. While global in scale, we honor our responsibility to make a positive difference in our local communities.
Everyone has an opportunity to learn
We provide employees with access to financial literacy training and coaching. The more we know, the greater the impact we can make together.
How Vision Becomes Action
All Fortifi companies prioritize employee leadership, growth and contributions to success. We provide practical tools and expert guidance for three essential components of employee ownership.
Engagement and High Performance
Fortifi companies align their performance with employee outcomes through regular surveys of engagement, team involvement in problem solving and product development, and full awareness of business outcomes. We back up these cultural commitments with corporate financial education.
Leadership Through Empathy and Empowerment
Fortifi companies embrace self-aware leadership through personal development and community building. We provide coaches, talent advisors and executive empathy workshops to combine shared purpose with business performance.
Support for Well Being
Fortifi employees thrive in workplaces that emphasize safety and rely on everyone to contribute to it. For employee wellness, we provide emergency assistance for individuals and their families who experience emergencies, disaster or tragedy. Through donations of our time and expertise, we make the well being of our local communities part of our circle of care.
