The Member Council exists to enable participating Members to voice their collective opinion and contribute to each Barefoot Investments project. The Council can:
- Vote on the use of certain project funds,
- Suggest new ideas to benefit the business, investment and other stakeholders,
- Lobby the executive team for strategic or tactical changes,
- Provide additional resources, experience or expertise as non-executive contributors to a project’s success.
The overall aim of the Council is to empower investors to collaborate with Barefoot Investments to create long-term value of a personal, social and financial nature. It is part of our ethical management approach and forms a cornerstone of our belief in sustainable development and long-term value creation (versus short-term quarterly financial targets) as the most important success factor in all ventures.
