Catalyzing worker co-ops & the solidarity economy

Cooperative Workshops for the Black Community

Think Outside the Boss provides community members an introduction into the nuts and bolts of starting and running a cooperatively owned business. We go over legal issues in an accessible way to help you understand the relationships between cooperatives, employment, and community wealth-building.

We'll be presenting Think Outside the Boss over three sessions. This first workshop session will cover:

  • What is a worker-owned business?

  • What are advantages of forming a cooperative business?

  • What are legal entities and what should you consider before forming one? 

If you are an African American entrepreneur starting a business, an existing business owner thinking about succession plans and you have Black workers, or an existing worker coop with black worker-members looking for a refresher, this training is for you! >>> RSVP BELOW!
