Learn how to successfully structure and participate in good governance
To be successful, co-operative shareholders should be able to answer this basic question: who gets to decide what? This is governance.
Learn how to do just that by taking this unique online course. Explore three key ideas:
- Ensure people work well together. Know your role in the organization and understand how to ensure relevant voices are heard.
- Create a successful view of the future. Learn how to create an aligned understanding with stakeholders of the goals for an organization.
- Build legitimacy. Understand how decisions can be recognized as having authority by a majority of shareholders so that the organization maintains legitimacy.
Using real world cases, discuss how these three ideas translate into practical features. Practical applications include understanding board structure and shareholder or member engagement. Most importantly, learn how to get the right people making the right decisions.
