Dragonfly Cohousing, our intentional community that is planning a building project in Calgary, is in the process of incorporating. I volunteered to be one of the four directors just so I could blog about being a director of a corporation. I don’t think I have any special duties (this is what I was led to believe) as a corporate director except perhaps reminding people that I am a director of a corporation.
One of our first decisions as a corporation will be that all decisions will be made using the consensus model. This means I will be able to wield as much power as the non-director share-holders. In fact I wield half as much as the single members since I share my vote with my wife.
I’m sure the most fun about all of this is the title. I think I should get a name plate made for my bedroom door: “Corporate Director: Zaak Robichaud”
