Wired Differently shares the compelling story of National Information Solutions Cooperative (NISC), a nearly fifty-year-old technology business built on the cooperative model. NISC started out providing software and IT services for three rural cooperatives a half-century ago, and has grown to fourteen million end users in forty-nine U.S. states or territories, and in Canada. Here is an organization where cooperative principles blend with leading-edge technologies to exceed expectations repeatedly -- even those of Fortune 500 customers like T-Mobile and Walmart -- and to attract recognition from industry giants, such as Computerworld and HDI. What are the secrets to NISCs humble yet astounding success? Wired Differently explores the unique business model and leadership principles behind NISCs impressive results.
