Learn the Language of Business
"At Parametrix we have a strong ownership culture that we want to
sustain and grow. As part of this we expect employees to learn of
the language of business," says Darlene Brown, Parametrix Chief
Financial Officer, an employee-owned planning, engineering, and
environmental consulting firm. The company’s business owner training
program supports their strategic goal to help each employee-owner
reach his/her full potential, and enhance share value by creating a
deeper understanding of key business indicators like project
multipliers, billings and collections. The business owner training
program makes "the numbers" come alive for employees who may not
have a financial focus.

have provided our ESOP clients with rich opportunities to teach
people about risk, reward, and the real meaning of “taking
ownership.”
Our clients often ask us to develop presentations that
will engage employees and focus people on thinking and acting like
owners. Surprisingly game show themes – though ‘low brow’ and ‘a bit

ownership thinking our clients want to develop.
