Strategy and Risk Management Collaborative

The Strategy and Risk Management Collaborative combines peer learning with our strategy and risk management expertise to help co-op leaders prepare for the challenges ahead.

Meetings begin in early 2023. Seats are limited!

A co-op’s strategy and risks are becoming more difficult to manage. The Strategy and Risk Management Collaborative makes it easier.

Key Features of The GreatCo-Ops Strategy and Risk Management Collaborative

Facilitated Virtual Collaborative Meetings: Six monthly, 75-minute meetings combining peer knowledge sharing and facilitation by GreatCo-Ops’ strategy and risk management experts. Each Collaborative member gets two “seats” per meeting. Topics addressed include:

Industry Trends and Their Likely Effects on Co-ops
Building an Excellent Strategic Plan
Performance Measurement
Best Practices in Co-op Risk Management
Risk Identification and Assessment
Risk Mitigation Strategies
Integrating Risk Management and Strategic Planning

Strategy and Risk Management Toolkit: Collaborative members have access to the GreatCo-Ops Strategy and Risk Management Toolkit, which includes our strategic plan template, execution plan template, risk register, risk map, risk policy, and risk mitigation forms.

Review of Your Co-op’s Strategic Plan and Approach to Risk Management: Our strategy and risk management experts review each Collaborative member’s current strategic plan and risk management process. Then, we provide clear recommendations for improvement in a virtual meeting with each co-op’s senior leadership.

The Collaborative gives co-op leaders the opportunity to collectively develop a more informed understanding of the forces that will shape their organizations in the future, and refine the tools necessary to address them effectively.
