"I met Roy Messing by chance at an event for professionals that help businesses thrive, and he most certainly fits that bill. He works to promote employee ownership of companies in our state. I saw down with Roy to understand how employees can become owners, and why it’s vital for the future of our state." — Steven Assarian, Business and Career Librarian https://lnkd.in/gyzSVJA9
