GUEST SPEAKERS

Shawn Murphy is a Government Relations Specialist with Shurphy Consulting in Ottawa, and was previously the Manager of Government Relations with the Canadian Co-operative Association. He will address the audience on why government relations work is vital to the success of the co-op sector - both on a provincial and local level, and provide us with some best practices and tools to conduct effective advocacy, based on his experience and expertise.

Lynn Mountford, District Manager for Grand River with The Co-operators. In today’s competitive marketplace, how can co-ops distinguish themselves and engage clients who are not aware of the co-operative advantage? As a long established co-operative, The Co-operators has recently released its 2015-2018 Strategic Plan with three focus areas: Client Engagement, Co-operative Identity and Competitiveness.  Although distinct, these focus areas are interrelated and interdependent.  Success will depend on continually living the principles and values of all co-operatives:  honesty, openness, inclusivity, voice and social responsibility. Lynn will provide insight on how The Co-operators applies these principles in its distribution through trusted advisors.
