The main argument I hear against giving employees shares in a company:
“But they don’t ask for it”
Then educate! That’s your job. Explain how there’s a chance that it can fuel their future. Share your experiences. Tell them why owning your work is amazing.
Be a leader, not a hoarder.

Dutch people be like "oh yes I speak a tiny bit of English therefore I must politely request that you offer me a modicum of grace as my linguistic ability in your language is limited. Despite this, I expect this humble shortcoming to not hinder my ability to render assistance adequately."

After last night, I feel more motivated than ever to empower creators to bring their stories to life beyond the stage. Try and generate this with a prompt and you'll fail miserably.
Instead, we can build tools so more people can enjoy their stories. I'm so proud to be working on that with them.
