Why it matters

The collection breaks governance into practical, teachable topics that worker co-ops can use in real operating moments.

Best for

Teams that need short, approachable materials rather than a single long manual.

This is a strong hub resource for worker co-op governance basics. It is especially useful because it includes both conceptual guides and concrete tools such as meeting templates, decision matrices, and board resources. It can serve as an onboarding path for new members or a resource bank for facilitators and advisors.
