Cooperatives are traditionally understood as entities that are owned by their members, whether these are consumers or producers/workers. I don't think incentives are really the problem, since coops already hire more workers than private multinational companies (Page on davegraceassociates.com) and for example, 80% of tech coops still exist after 3 years vs 60% for private startups.
