Embracing the Role of Membership
For an organization or business to be successful, each person involved should make decisions based on what is best for the collective group, not just what is best for one individual.
From regular costs like supplies or rent to future investments in new equipment or technology, each owner buys into the company's philosophy and contributes. If one partner fails to make the payments or fails to see the importance of future investments, the business suffers.
This is the same way your electric cooperative operates. We make decisions based on what is best for our current and future members.
