Assessing the value of share ownership - One of the key planks of the Government's commitment to an "enterprise culture" is shares for all. The all-employee share scheme, introduced this April, complements existing arrangements and aims to foster a US-style entrepreneurial culture. But does giving employees a stake in their company really make any difference? To address this fundamental question we analyse practice in a panel of 15 companies - including drinks giant Coca Cola North West Europe, engineering group GKN and retailers Matalan and Somerfield - and evaluate the results achieved. Key findings from our research suggest that: share schemes have had mixed results, with movement in the share price a major determinant of success; and to be effective, share schemes need, on the whole, to have some clear links to performance. We also investigate the prospects for the new all-employee share option scheme (AESOP) and ask our panel of organisations what they think of the Government's "son of PRP".
