Do you understand what stock is and how stock options work? Or how stock value is created? Do you understand the tax, exercise, and financial planning issues for stock options? If you're like most people, at least some of these issues are perplexing for you. Until now, though, there has not been a book that puts this all together for the everyday employee. The Employee's Guide to Stock Options puts it all in one place in an easy-to-understand format.

The National Center for Employee Ownership

More than ever before, a company's most important asset is its people. The ideas and information employees can contribute every day distinguish innovative, dynamic, and successful businesses from their more plodding peers. To encourage employees to get more involved, more and more companies ask employees to "think and act like owners," even if they don't share actual ownership. Others do share ownership but still treat people as "just employees." However, research and experience show it is the combination of involvement and ownership that really creates winners. It's not an easy task, however; ownership management requires constant attention every day. This book draws on the National Center for Employee Ownership's over 20 years of experience in this field, and, more importantly, the experience of the leading employee ownership companies. It provides concrete, specific ideas on how to structure plans, share information, get employees involved in decisions, and even have fun.

Employee ownership creates stronger companies, helps workers build wealth, and fosters a fairer, more stable society. In this book, two leading experts show how it works—and how it can be greatly expanded.\nWages don’t cover the bills. Wealth inequality is growing. Social trust is eroding. There are endless debates about what to do, but one key factor is inexplicably left out: who owns the companies that drive the economy?\nOwnership matters. Ownership by a few means benefits for a few. But if you spread ownership around, you spread the benefits of capitalism around. Employee ownership lets workers build real wealth, not just pick up a paycheck. And it’s a piece of the puzzle that’s in plain sight. As Corey Rosen and John Case point out, there are already thousands of prosperous employee-owned companies.\nRosen and Case explain why so many companies end up being owned by Wall Street shareholders or private equity firms—and why that kind of ownership encourages a focus on short-term profits rather than the long-term sustainability needed by employees, communities, and the environment. They show the limits of reform efforts that don’t address the essential issue of who owns what.\nBut the heart of the book is a deep dive into how employee ownership originated, how it works now, and what needs to be done to expand it. The book looks at how the idea is growing, both in the United States and around the world—and why all sides of the political spectrum support it.\nRosen and Case offer a vivid portrait of a form of ownership that results in more prosperous workers, more responsible companies, and a fairer, more stable society.

This book describes the full spectrum of equity compensation plans (such as stock options, stock purchase plans, stock grants, restricted stock, phantom stock, and stock appreciation rights) available to private and public companies as well as LLCs. Unlike most books on equity compensation, it focuses on helping decision-makers decide what kinds of equity to choose, and who should get how much and when. In the second edition, every existing chapter has been revised and updated, and new chapters on performance awards and limited liability companies have been added.
