Solving the GM Crisis
Bonnie Hudspeth, Firebrand Cooperative and Steve Cooke, Friendly City Co-op 

Hear a follow-up discussion from the co-creation session at the Up & Coming Conference about the GM (General Manager) crisis in the food co-op movement and what is happening to develop and build the GM pool to help startup food co-ops successfully open their stores. Come for a discussion of the GM role and how our movement is building (or needs to further build!) the GM pool.
