Shared Vision and Alignment

Building a shared vision at the leadership level is a critical step in expansion planning.

Alignment takes time and results from commitment to a process. Our consultants can work with your co-op and its specific challenges to develop an approach to creating shared vision and building alignment.

  • Building a strong board-management relationship
  • Clarifying roles
  • Designing an appropriate process
  • Support throughout the process
  • Developing a plan to expand the shared vision outward to the members and beyond
