At Windage Partners, we are proud to align with the principles of Ownership Works, a transformative initiative dedicated to creating wealth for working families through shared ownership models. This commitment underpins our “Shared Ownership” program, which is an integral part of our impact strategy. Ownership Works aims to drive inclusive prosperity by enabling employees to become co-owners of the companies they help build and grow. By implementing these tenets at Windage, we ensure that the success of our portfolio companies translates into tangible financial benefits for their employees. This approach fosters a culture of shared responsibility, accountability, and alignment of interests across all levels of the organization. Our Shared Ownership program involves granting equity or equity-like instruments to employees, providing them with a direct stake in the company’s success. This not only enhances employee motivation and engagement but also aligns their interests with those of investors and management. As co-owners, employees are more likely to be invested in the long-term success of the company, leading to improved performance, innovation, and sustainable growth. Furthermore, the program promotes financial literacy and empowerment, offering employees the tools and knowledge needed to understand and maximize their equity participation. Through comprehensive education and support, we aim to demystify equity ownership and ensure that all employees can fully benefit from their stake in the company. At Windage, we believe that shared ownership is a powerful driver of social and economic impact. By embedding the principles of Ownership Works into our operational framework, we are committed to fostering an inclusive environment where everyone can share in the rewards of our collective success. This not only strengthens our companies but also contributes to the broader goal of creating more equitable and prosperous communities.
