In 2018, Anna-Lisa Miller was working with agricultural cooperatives in Hawaii, helping them reinvest in their communities through shared ownership. Then she came across an investor presentation from a different universe: KKR, one of the world’s largest private equity firms. In it, a KKR executive, Pete Stavros, discussed a model he had been developing to provide employees with an equity stake in companies it purchased, so the workers would reap some benefits if it was flipped for a profit. By that time, Mr. Stavros had decided to start an organization to promote his model more broadly, hoping to reach the 12 million people who work for companies that private equity firms own. Ms. Miller saw it as a way to move much faster.

The job market may be strong, but the invisible strings that connect workers to their jobs are increasingly weaker. As the co-head of global private equity at KKR , he's been a key champion of instilling employee stock ownership programs in all the companies the firm buys for its $19 billion Americas Fund. "It's better for investors, it's better for the company, it's better for employees, and in the end, it's better for the communities that they live in." Over 60,000 non-management employees have been awarded billions of dollars in total equity value through these ownership programs since 2011, the firm said. Through the non-profit, other private-equity firms like Apollo and TPG also committed to advancing shared ownership within their own portfolios.
