Rethinking Ownership with Katie & Brian Boland
On this episode of Ethical Exits, Hannah sits down with Katie & Brian Boland, Co-Founders and CEO of Delta Fund and Unlock Ownership. Katie and Brian are economic activists and strategists challenging how we think about capital, power, and ownership.
They unpack a term they coined: equity washing. Think greenwashing, but for employee ownership. What happens when workers receive some economic upside, but little meaningful governance, agency, or long-term control?
From there, the conversation moves to the bigger question: What does real ownership actually look like?
