Continue to Pursue Excellence in Governance at Your Cooperative

Co-op governance has never been more challenging or under more scrutiny.  Let’s work together to take your co-op’s governance to the next level.

Why Governance Matters

Today’s electric co-op boards face a wide variety of new and serious challenges.

Member expectations for transparency are changing. Governance activists are more common. Legislators are increasingly interested in co-op affairs. Decision-making is more complex. This is the “new normal” for co-op directors, making it vitally important that co-ops achieve excellence in governance.
