Description

Join us to explore how Third Sector Accountancy found sociocracy and the successes and challenges they’ve experienced implementing a new structure during a period of rapid growth. This session will be framed as a conversation between Zig Power and Jo Roberts from TSA, with Abbie Kempson from SoFA’s Co-op Circle. We invite participants to ask questions and share their experiences of introducing sociocracy into co-operatives.
