Policies that work
Good policies improve everyone’s quality of life and play a big role in the smooth management of a co-op — from parking to painting to arrears collection and more. Bad policies make everyone miserable. Having no policies is a recipe for chaos.
In this workshop we will:
- Understand the role policies play in good governance
- Examining why policies have to be followed and challenges in enforcement
- Create a framework for establishing ‘good’ policies
- Evaluate when policies have to be reviewed, amended, or rescinded.
This workshop will give you the tools to improve your governance and management with good policies.
