All cooperatives' staff and managers are invited to join us for two days focused on developing the structures of our co-ops as well as the staff/board relationships that support them. There will also be invaluable roundtable discussions and networking time with other co-op staff and managers.

We encourage participants to arrive on Monday, June 3 before two full days of programming on Tuesday and Wednesday, including:
Staff/Board Relationships & Evaluations - NASCO Staff
Collective/Hierarchical Working Structures - Sam Green, Industrial Workers of the World
Managing Renovations & Transitions - Corrigan Nadon-Nichols, NASCO Development Services

And 3 Scheduled Hours of Open Discussion Time!
Our full schedule can be found online at http://www.nasco.coop/staff/2013/schedule.
