Flying the Coop

#04 Jacqueline Radebaugh: The legal side of doing business differently


Listen Later

“The cooperative model is healing the way we interact and relate to each other… and it allows us to practice law in a healing way.” – Jacqueline Radebaugh 

 

From corporate tax law to co-ops, Jacqueline has been on quite a journey as a lawyer.

Now she’s the best dang coop lawyer around (spoiler alert: she’s ours).

 

Jacqueline is a managing partner at Jason Weiner, a firm that provides legal and business consulting for mission-driven companies, social impact, and environmental enterprises. Jacqueline assists mission-based, values-forward entrepreneurs and businesses in identifying and addressing their legal needs, from start-up phase through financing rounds, to conversion and exit strategies.

 

On top of the three things everyone should kind of already be doing before they begin discussions in creating their coop (open books, decision-making practices, and sharing profit), we also cover:

  • What makes a coop successful?
  • What do extractive practices mean?
  • What paperwork do you need to be a coop?
  • What is sociocracy?
  • Where are the common places people struggle when building their coop?
  •  

    Flying the Coop is brought to you by Strange Birds, a messaging co-op that gives a flying duck. From websites to onboarding flows, launches to long-term strategy: if you want your brand, offers, and experience to tell the same story, we can help.
