In this episode, host Alex Partin and guests Serena Morones, David Harkins, and Kyle Wolf each bring their unique perspectives on Employee Stock Ownership Plans (ESOPs) and their critical role in succession planning for privately held businesses. The conversation explores how ESOPs offer a compelling alternative to traditional exit strategies. The panel brings together perspectives from business valuation experts and those with firsthand experience in ESOP-owned firms, offering practical insights for business owners considering this path. Key Takeaways: ESOPs as a Succession Tool: ESOPs provide a way for business owners to transition ownership to employees, maintaining company culture and values while offering liquidity and a gradual exit strategy. Business Valuation for ESOPs: The success of an ESOP partly depends on accurate, third-party business valuation, which determines fair market value for the transaction and ensures sustainability for both sellers and employee owners. Transparency and Engagement Drive Success: Companies that openly communicate ESOP benefits and valuation processes to employees foster a sense of ownership, improve retention, and create a more engaged workplace culture.

David Harkins es un poeta y pintor británico, conocido principalmente por su poema “Remember Me” (en español, “Recuérdame”), también difundido bajo el título “She Is Gone” (“Ella se ha ido”). Nacimiento: 14 de noviembre de 1958 en Carlisle, Cumbria (Reino Unido). Escribió el poema en 1982, inspirado por un amor no correspondido, mientras trabajaba como ayudante en una panadería. El poema se hizo famoso cuando fue leído en el funeral de la Reina Madre (madre de la reina Isabel II) en 2002. En ese momento, fue atribuido erróneamente a "Autor Anónimo". Aunque nació del desamor, el texto se convirtió en un mensaje reconfortante para quienes están de duelo por la pérdida de un ser querido. Además de la poesía, Harkins se ha dedicado a la pintura, especialmente de retratos desnudos y eróticos de su esposa. Vende sus obras en línea y ha trabajado desde casa, cuidando a su hijo con discapacidad. A pesar de la fama de su poema, él ha declarado: “Nunca fui un buen escritor, y mi poesía tampoco era muy buena.”
Popular funeral poem based on a short verse by David Harkins. An uplifting poem about being grateful for a loved one's life.
Poema escrito en los años '80, cuando Harkins tenía 22/23 años y nunca lo concibió como una obra funeraria sino amorosa. Fue leído por Isabel II en el funeral de la Reina Madre de Inglaterra, en el año 2002.
