Was wondering about lists of worker cooperatives so went looking. The United States Federation of Worker Cooperatives has a list by location, but I imagine there are a lot that aren't listed, because I believe they only list members.

My newest #substack article in a long-winded series about my ideas for the concept of a #WorkerCooperative MLM designed for #DisposablePeople like me who struggle with traditional employment.

"Capital gains at any cost on a quarterly balance sheet seems as much a madness as a tumor depleting the resources until the rapid, uncontrolled expansion kills both it and the host."

@dajb Great initiative! So inspiring to see what you're doing 😄🌱

I'm in the process of starting a tech #workercooperative in Sweden together with some fellow #socialentrepreneurs and this community has been super helpful!

What do you think about the following incentive structure for founders of #cooperatives?

1. Founders contribute unpaid work to get the #coop started.

2. Once the #cooperative is sustainable economically, founders get a limited period of additional salary, based on what they think is fair given the initial unpaid work.

3. After that, all #workercooperative members own and govern the organization on the same terms, and all get compensated based on the policy they agree on.

Anyone who is willing to launch a #WorkerCooperative can use the #Convene source-code to start serving the local businesses in their area to give them a logistical "toehold" against extractive economic forces.

The last 3 years for #ZincCoop have been learning how to be together and building connection with the SF Bay Area Solidarity Economy.

The next 3 will be learning how to truly serve them in a way that is socioeconomically self-sustaining.

What are good incentives to create a meaningful working environment where employees have high engagement and stay for a longer time? Any tips appreciated!

I'm co-founding a #design and #development #workercooperative, and we're curious to learn more about the balance between purpose, self-direction and mastery on one side - compared to financial incentives on the other side. This video is a concise summary of our current thoughts:

I’ve been in the #workercooperative space for literally ones of months. On the Dunning Krueger scale I’ve reached the pinnacle of confidence.
That’s why there is no doubt in my mind that more consulting firms should consider organizing as #coops.
Consulting is a business where the link between workers’ labor and revenue is obvious. It also requires very little capital for startup and has low overhead, making it simpler to get rolling.
