The Power and Benefit of Employee Ownership

11/30/23 • 36 min

Ever since 2006, DVL Group has been an employee owned company, and since then, our status as an ESOP (Employee Stock Ownership Plan) has been a large part of our identity. With October being National Employee Ownership Month, the DVL Power Hour is thrilled to celebrate by hosting our first webinar dedicated to employee ownership.
We’re excited to welcome Dani Green and Kate Johnson, two employee owners from another ESOP company called ProAct. They'll discuss both the tangible and intangible benefits of being an employee owned company, but also the power it gives its owners to better serve their customers, their community, and each other.
ProAct, which is a fully integrated pharmacy benefits management company, was recently named the 2023 Company of the Year by the NY/NJ Chapter of the ESOP Association. In addition, Green was awarded the honor of 2023 Employee Owner of the Year, due to the large part she plays in hosting their vlog, “Sweet + Salty”, Green hits the road with different guests to visit other employee owned companies in the northeast section of the United States. And it is through this video blog that they have been successful in profiling not only their own company’s amazing journeys and stories, but those of others in the employee owned community.
