The awards seek to showcase the movement's strengths in the area of governance and provide the opportunity for co-op and credit union boards to learn from each other. The Awards criteria are based on three factors: overall governance excellence; effective co-operative governance practices; and innovation in governance.
APPLICATION FORM
Brown Governance Co-operative Award for Boardroom Culture
Starting with the 2010 Awards, CCA and Brown Governance Inc. have launched a second award, the Brown Governance Co-operative Award for Boardroom Culture. Boardroom culture is the set of unwritten, often even unspoken norms underlying
governance power structures. Individual
personalities, personal relationships,
decision-making processes, and the use of
benchmarks and performance measurements
are all factors of boardroom culture. This award
recognizes that a healthy boardroom culture is
critical to governance success.
