Samantha Lenox on The Fractional CFO Podcast: Share options and employee benefits 

Our Head of Employee Share Schemes, Samantha Lenox, recently sat down with Adam Cooper of The Fractional CFO Show podcast to speak broadly about employee share option plans, looking at the various structures of share option plans, and how to implement them. 

The show’s aim is to share business owners’ experiences, tips and tricks to help improve their cash flows and profits, helping them reach their financial goals. 

Samantha also provides insight for small businesses and those who may be new to the concept of employee share schemes to help them better understand what’s available.  

Samantha also spoke about: 

  • How to successfully educate and manage the expectations of younger employees around the concept of share-option plans. 
  • Understanding the benefits around EMI schemes. 
  • How to internally market these schemes to employees. 
  • How to manage share option plans from an international perspective. 
  • How to merge ESOPs with shorter-term bonus schemes. 

The show’s host, Adam Cooper, is also the Founder of ACC Finance Solutions, a financial advisory for small businesses. ACC Finance Solutions provides various services, including financial goal setting, cash flow management, 1:1 finance coaching, plus much more.
