PLAYBOOK
Your guide to a fair exit — backed by real stories, deal terms, and tools to help you plan with confidence.

Every succession path comes with trade-offs. Some may maximize financial return but risk shifting the company’s mission, jobs, or culture. Others may preserve legacy but limit flexibility.
The Employee Ownership Trust (EOT) offers something different: the ability to transition at fair market value, protect what you’ve built, and share success more broadly with your team.
The 2025 EOT Playbook breaks down how EOTs work — and whether they might be a fit for your business — by bringing together real-world insights from business owners who've made the shift.
Inside, you’ll find:
A simple overview of EOTs (what they are, how they work, and who they're right for).
Success stories of real EOT transitions, and lessons learned along the way.
Field-tested insights on profit-sharing, governance, & more.
A concise FAQ with clear, practical answers.
