FairShares Rules Generator

The FairShares Model is an approach to developing and constituting multi-stakeholder social enterprises that build on the traditions of the co-operative sector. Its unique approach is to offer membership to social entrepreneurs, labour members, user members and (small) investors. Each participates in membership and has a voice in enterprise governance.

This site contains FairShares 'rules generators' that enable you to generate rules for your enterprise. You can use these to form, register and incorporate FairShares companies, cooperatives, associations and partnerships.

When you generate rules, you can take one of two approaches:

  1. Start with a blank form and answer all the questions yourself;
  2. Choose forms with settings for a particular language, country context and/or industry.

After filling out the form, you can receive a PDF file (free), editable document (fixed fee), or bespoke consultancy from a specialist (variable fee).

The rules created by this website apply FairShares Model v3.0 to the incorporation of new companies, cooperatives, partnerships and associations. Choose an option:

Generate Company Rules

Generate Cooperative Rules

Generate Association Rules

Generate a Partnership Agreement

FairShares Model

+ +
+

+

The FairShares Model enables you to (re)design companies, cooperatives, associations and partnerships to fully recognise and reward enterprise founders, workforce members and users/customer. We recognise that wealth is generated by those who invest natural, human, social, intellectual, manufactured and financial wealth, and through stewarding nature to enhance human skills and capabilities, building relationships that enable them to generate and share ideas that lead to the creation of goods that meet human, societal and environmental needs.

+

By recognising and rewarding these forms of wealth contribution, a more ethically grounded concept of wealth guides our human endeavours to create, distribute and reinvest forms of capital to meet a wide variety of needs.

+

The FairShares Model V3.0a is implemented through:

+
    +
  • five values and principles (01);
    • +
  • six key questions (02);
    • +
  • five learning and development methods (03);
    • +
  • four legal identities (04)
    • +
  • seven ICT support platforms (05).
    • +
  • six forms of wealth contribution (06).
    • +
+

They were initiated through a research programme on democratising charities, co-operatives and social enterprises involving academics at Sheffield Hallam University and Manchester Metropolitan University in the UK, and developed as part of an EU Erasmus+ project to create FairShares Labs. The model promotes cooperative social entrepreneurship that recognises and enfranchises the providers of different types of capital contribution.

+

Memberships (and shares in companies and cooperatives) can be offered to investors of every type of capital by redesigning companies, cooperatives, associations and partnership to fully recognise and reward enterprise founders, workforce members, users/customers and the creators/providers of financial capital. 

+

First, we devised a set of values and principles based on a definition of social enterprise created in January 2012 by Social Enterprise International Ltd.  We link these values and principles to key questions for enterprise incubation and development.

+

Second, we identify who is best able to answer each question to develop a design philosophy and governance model.  Social auditing and diagnostic tools can help develop the architecture for ongoing development of ownership, governance and management systems.

+

Who can answer key questions?

+

Lastly, to encourage the social systems to endure, we apply the design principles to model constitutions for companies, co-operatives, associations and partnerships.  The model constitutions provide a kind of social DNA for the replication of the five principles by implementing them through new approaches to ownership, governance and management. We believe these systems will make it easier to achieve UN 2030 sustainable development goals.
