I think it&#x27;s a misconception that worker coops can&#x27;t have &#x27;the boss&#x27;. Most successful ones I&#x27;ve read about delegate day-to-day decisions to an executive committee.<p>The differences between that and management-owned companies are the political tools all workers have to influence decisions, and the shared social contract which says all owners have a stake in the company&#x27;s decision making (not all employees have to be owners from day one).
