As a cooperative, GreenStone is owned by its member stockholders and governed by an elected Board of Directors representing all areas of our territory. Our board meets throughout the year to provide direction and leadership oversight to our organization.
Before a member can be elected to the board, our Nominating Committee identifies, evaluates, and nominates a qualified slate of member candidates for stockholder election. The Nominating Committee holds a very pivotal role in determining who provides leadership to our association.
If you’re interested in furthering GreenStone’s role as an industry leader for agriculture and our rural communities, serving on the Nominating Committee might be a great opportunity for you!
Who Can Apply for the Nominating Committee?
The main duty of the Nominating Committee is to seek out and identify qualified individuals who are willing to serve as directors or nominating committee members. Those interested in serving on the Committee must:
• Be a voting GreenStone stockholder
• Have an outstanding loan balance with GreenStone
• Not be a current candidate for the Board of Directors
• Reside or have a headquarters within GreenStone’s chartered territory
What Makes a Good Candidate?
The most important quality of a Nominating Committee member is your eagerness to get involved and advance the association forward. By putting the right people in place, GreenStone and our members both experience long-term growth that makes an impact.
