Leadership

While it is particularly difficult to quantify who exactly leads a “conversational friendship,” those of us who have committed our time and resources to Emergent Village do fall into two groups.

The first is Emergent Village cohorts, a growing number of grassroots conversation organizers and participants. The second is the Emergent Village Board of Directors, a smaller group of friends who has taken responsibility for overseeing the finances and legalities of Emergent Village.

Coordinating Group

In 1997, Emergent Village formed a “Coordinating Group,” which was informally called the “Group of Twenty.” Even then, it was a bit difficult to know exactly who the twenty were, since various people floated in and out of the group depending on their availability and interest. Over the next 12 years, the coordinating group grew significantly, in parallel with both the interest and activities in Emergent Village. The Coordinating Group was officially disbanded in April 2009.

Board of Directors

Emergent Village is a non-profit corporation, and, as such, has a Board of Directors that oversees the operations and finances of the organization. Board members serve a three-year term and meet four times a year. But, more importantly, they care deeply about the future of Emergent Village, and they work diligently at providing for the long-term sustainability of EV.
