Organizational Structure

RMCCN follows the sociocratic governance model. Sociocracy uses the term circles instead of committees to emphasize a circular flow of information and decision making. RMCCN is directed by three circles, Governing, Operating, and Advising.

Sociocracy  

Sociocracy is a people-centered approach to organizational governance that fosters equivalence, connection and effectiveness. Consent decision-making provides everyone in the group an equal opportunity to decide the policies governing their activities, while the circle-based organizational structure promotes accountability and two-way flow of power and information. The result is a dynamic, responsive organization that effectively achieves its aims. To learn more, visit www.sociocracy.info.
