2
The Background



› Poor data on share plan effectiveness and practices

› Previous industry research efforts not close enough to reality

› Industry representative groups not filling the gap

› IFRS places pressure on Issuers to demonstrate ROI

› Trend toward companies asking provider about best practice in design

› ‘Shared Capitalism’ project in USA




3
Our Mission


› To undertake ground breaking research to understand the attitudes of
  a workforce as regards share ownership


› To deliver hard data relative to the assumptions we all make regarding
  share plan participation


› To gain real insight into the justification for and the best ways to grow
  employee share plans




4
Project Overview



› Devised comprehensive questionnaire

› Tested actual knowledge as well as perceptions and cross-analyzed

› Developed an online tool

› Pilot

› UK, Ireland, Australia, South Africa, USA

› 2780 participants

› Surveys conducted over a year, repeated 3 years later




5
LONDON SCHOOL OF ECONOMICS/HARVARD
RESEARCH

› Statistically significant results show that employees in
  a company share plan stay longer, work harder, care
  more about the company and are generally happier


› All of these effects increase with depth of ownership


› These results give us real pointers for plan design and
  communications




6
Share Plan Communications


› How are you communicating to eligible employees?
    › Are you using all available communications channels?
    › Are you making the most of new technology?
› How well are you communicating?
    › Ask your staff
       › Do they have enough warning?
       › Do they know how to join?
       › Leave?
       › Alter payment amounts?
       › What the tax implications are?


          Good Communication = Increased Participation

Notes de l'éditeur

  1. Insert title, date and Presenter’s name Presentation last updated – 23/02/07 Pick and choose the relevant slides for your presentation for all the following slides
  2. Members are more likely to monitor colleagues’ work and to flag it up if they think they’re not doing a good job 82% of members are likely to speak to a supervisor or take some other form of action Versus 49% of non-members likely to do the same 34% of non-members are likely to do nothing if they saw a colleague not doing their job properly 28% of members are likely to do the same Members are more likely than non-members to rate their work effort above the average Take less sickness absence Work longer hours than non-members Members have greater organisational loyalty and have stronger attachment to the firm’s values Members take a greater interest in the finances of the company Plan members have higher job satisfaction and lower quits. True, even within work units and accounting for differences in worker and job characteristics. Loyalty/fairness perceptions account for some of this but not all. Others’ plan participation raises your satisfaction, irrespective of own plan participation
  3. We used payslip messaging in the run up to the sharesave opening, and during enrolment, as a free way to let people know it was on its way. Toolkits including key facts and FAQs equipped People Managers to answer questions quickly and effectively. We created dedicated content for Asda’s intranet We created videos of the case studies colleagues had provided us, and made these available to colleagues via their intranet and Face book. We specifically target mobile, remote and warehouse staff with the message that these were available. These could be downloaded and viewed on a variety of mobile devices and pushed SMS and online enrolment. You can still see one of these at http://greenroom.asda.com/2010/3/1/sharesave-2010 We scripted updates for Facebook and Twitter in advance of the launch, which the Asda team posted during the enrolment period. The beauty of communication like this is that it can be tailored according to how the launch is going and if there’s an FAQ, it can be addressed via this medium. We encouraged colleagues to pass updates on to friends. We created a suite of awards which we offered a ‘trophy’ for – encouraging competition between stores. In order to let people view where they were relative to top spot, and to deliver effective daily reporting, we created a reporting site which all Asda stores had access to.
  4. The reporting site allowed us to monitor which sites were or weren’t getting the message ref. sign up. All Asda people Managers had log ins so that they could personally review how their local take up was progressing.
