Employee stock purchase plans (ESPPs) aren't just a workplace perk; they're a wealth-building tool with the potential to change lives. That's according to Aaron Shapiro, founder and CEO of Carver Edison, a financial technology company focused on improving employee stock ownership programs. The catch? Employees have to be able to afford to participate—and now they can. Carver Edison and its core technology, Cashless Participation, allows employees to participate in ESPPs without having deductions from their pay. The idea was born out of a challenging conversation Aaron had with his mom. She was a longtime employee at a health insurance company and needed help to make her money grow. Aaron explored her options and realized that by not being able to participate in her company's ESPP, she had missed out on over a million dollars over the course of 10 years. Aaron knew she wasn't alone. So, he and his team developed a solution. Host Rodney Bolden and Aaron discuss the advantage that total rewards leaders and chief human resource officers, or CHROs, have when employees can afford to participate in ESPPs, and how participation has the potential to turn into more engagement, higher retention and greater employee satisfaction, which could also increase enterprise value for shareholders. They discuss how helping unlock equity ownership could help improve someone's quality of life. Visit MorganStanley.com/atwork for more insights on workplace financial benefits.

Moral of the story is don't record 10 episodes without listening to them. Brian is the CEO of PanoPick, a peer-to-peer sports betting app that's goal is not to manipulate you into losing your money and get you gambling addicted while warning you about the possibility of getting addicted, but rather to allow you to have some competitive fun betting against friends and finally figuring out who's really knows sports the best. After graduating law school in 2012, Brian went to work at…, uh, actually he went to play poker online in Montreal because it was illegal to play for cash online in the states.  Yep, rather than go the big law route, Brian's been supporting himself playing poker for the past 10 years while he figured out what to do with his lifeThis was a really fun and different conversation.

"I was shocked by the speed at which the Taliban was able to retake control...It makes me wonder about political and military decisions that have been made over the last 20 years...It's agonizing to hear about the human rights advocates, military interpreters and even American citizens who were left behind. I appreciate the band aid needed to be ripped off eventually...Did we know all along that the government would immediately collapse without us putting money into those programs? How long did we know that the situation was untenable but remained? Ultimately, I've been battling with the question of what was the point." In this episode, we talk with Aaron Shapiro, JMU Business Administration, '06, who deployed to Afghanistan and served as a Disbursing Officer at Camp Eggers in Kabul, Afghanistan.

The “smart” city of today looks little like what experts of yesteryear expected them to. In this book, Aaron Shapiro, Ph.D. takes readers on a behind the scenes tour of the smart city and shows the revolution in urban technology that is currently taking place in large metropolitan areas around the United States. Technology has fundamentally transformed urban life. Throughout Design, Control, Predict: Logistical Governance in the Smart City (U Minnesota Press, 2020), Shapiro develops a new lens called logistical governance in his effort to interpret and understand urban technologies. This lens was used to critique urban future based on extraction and rationalization. Through ethnographic research, journalistic interviews, and his own hands-on experience, Shapiro helps readers peer through cracks of the façade that smart cities are bearing. He investigates the true price New Yorkers pay for “free,” ad-funded WiFi, finding that it is ultimately serving the ends of commercial media. Shapiro also builds on his experience as a bike courier delivering food for a startup company and examines how promises of “flexible employment” in the gig economy paves the way for strict managerial control. And he turns his discussion toward the current debates about police violence and new patrol technologies, asking whether algorithms are the answer to reforming the ongoing crises of criminal justice in large urban cities. Through these gripping accounts of new technology in urban areas, Shapiro and Design, Control, Predict make vital contributions to conversations about data privacy and algorithmic governance. Shapiro provides a ground level account of a timely and important piece of research in Design, Control, Predict. This piece can be used when comprehending urbanism today and when identifying strategies to advance the critique and resistance to a dystopian future that is often viewed as inevitable. Michael O. Johnston, Ph.D. is an Assistant Professor of Sociology at William Penn University. His most recent research, “The Queen and Her Royal Court: A Content Analysis of Doing Gender at a Tulip Queen Pageant“, was published in Gender Issues Journal. He researches culture, social identity, and collective representation as it is presented in everyday social interactions. He is currently studying the social interactions that people engage in at two annual festivals that take place during the summer months along the banks of the Mississippi River.

Today I have the pleasure of chatting with one of our own moms here at Baby Chick and young widow, Cheyenne Bell, and the Founder and CEO of Dayforward, Aaron Shapiro. CEO, Aaron Shapiro, has a long history of being a marketing and technology executive, serial entrepreneur, but most of all, a father and husband to his wife and three children in New York City. He’s spent his career using digital technology to help make people’s lives better. After leaving his last company, which helped some of the world's largest companies modernize their business with digital, Aaron decided to take on the massive and important problem with financial security in the life insurance industry. This brings us to today’s episode and the importance of having life insurance if anyone depends on you financially. We’re so happy to have Aaron here to talk about Dayforward and have Cheyenne share her story. Cheyenne is a busy mom of two young kids who suddenly found herself a widow in 2017. Since then, she has become passionate about educating other young couples about the importance of preparing for the worst. She recently wrote an article on our site about becoming a young widow and why life insurance is such a crucial element when planning for your future. And Cheyenne is here to talk about her story and insight on this critical topic. We know. Life insurance, in general, is one of those things that you don’t necessarily want to think about. And it might not be everyone’s favorite thing to talk about either. Especially ‘what if’ scenarios about untimely death. But it is important when you decide to start a family or already have a family of your own. Aaron and Cheyenne are both here to discuss: Why life insurance is so important for keeping your family financially secure. The importance of having the right amount of coverage to protect your loved ones. And lastly, how Dayforward Income Protection is different from conventional life insurance and what they want families listening to know. Today’s episode is brought to you by our friends at Dayforward. If you haven’t heard of Dayforward yet, they’re an entirely new type of life insurance that protects your family by protecting your income. So if you die, your family will continue to receive your twice-a-month paychecks just like they depend on today, until your kids are adults.

Over 2 years ago, Coverager published this article called "Behind The Scenes". In it, Avi quoted Aaron Shapiro, author of the book Users, Not Customers and (at the time) CEO of the ad agency Huge. Aaron is now CEO of Dayforward (what was Avi's influence on this???) Aaron joined Shefi, Avi and Nick on This Week in Coverager. With a lot of activity in the life insurance space and the announcement of Lemonade Life, we discussed Dayforward's recent release, the advantages of being a carrier vs MGA, obsession over the definition of "customer" and how Dayforward thinks about differentiation and positioning. Dayforward is focused on financial inequality and their life solution is step #1 in what is likely to be a string of financial solutions to close the gap. Outro music - Gathering Crowds by John ScottYouTubehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rGbFbDv0gwYAmazonhttps://amz.run/3vcq

Created in 1964, the Employee Stock Purchase Plan was the original financial worker benefit in the US.. But over time, due to shrinking real wages and different benefits taking the forefront, most employees have found it difficult to participate, leaving them out of the good fortunes of their companies and increasing the gap between employee ranks. But if we could increase participation as we rebuild, could we align all the stakeholders in a company and create an economy where so many don't live on the edge? We spoke to Aaron Shapiro, Founder at Carver Edison (https://www.carveredison.com/ ), who has found a tech solution that might be able to restore the use of ESPP.
