An Interview with Abbas Shapuri
Abbas Shapuri’s journey into the worker co-operative movement is not a typical one. Many worker co-operators arrive from the “alternative” or activist scenes. Abbas, however, came from the heart of capitalism: corporate accountancy.
In this episode of Punchcard, Abbas and I talk about what led to him betraying his politics and values to work at big corporate firms, like KPMG & IHG, and how he eventually managed to escape.
Help connect more workers like Abbas with the worker co-ops movement.
Worker co-operatives are still a fringe model, known by few and understood by even fewer. Punchcard exists to change that, bringing co-operative ideas and real-world stories into public consciousness.
By building a dedicated worker co-op podcast, we’re reaching new audiences and showing that another way of working is not only possible - it’s already happening.
We’re aiming for 50 listeners donating £5/month to take Punchcard to the next level - better audio, better video, and greater reach: https://opencollective.com/workerscoop/projects/punchcard
