Forum: Define Our Shared Co-op Values
2024-12-09 19:00 - 21:00 | Community Room, 170 Main St, Greenfield, MA, MA, 01301, United States
What you value matters! Please join us to define our shared Co-op values
The Board is exploring what values Co-op member-owners hold most dear. These will serve as
a guidepost for future decisions and priorities.
As you may know, the Board is in the midst of re-evaluating our “Ends” policies. Under our
system of governance, Ends policies are specific goals the Board provides to the General
Manager with regard to running the organization. We have come to realize that a broader set of
ideas – our shared values – would help balance and guide these operational targets.
We request your assistance in defining our shared Co-op values.
Please join in one or more upcoming Open Forum discussions:
Monday, Dec. 9 at 7 p.m.: in person at our Community Room, 170 Main St., Greenfield
