Description:

A co-op's success or failure as a business and as a community depends on a good effective board. A good board understands:

its legal obligations;
how the co-op's governing documents guide decision-making and actions;
its role and the role of the general membership, staff, and committees — in governing and managing the co-op;
the most common mistakes and how to avoid them;
what it will take to be a co-op with a sustainable future.
