Best in Class Model
The Best in Class Model empowers Touchstone Energy® Cooperatives to continue to be the gold standard of excellence in the energy industry. We’ve organized more than 20 years of proven programs, research, internal and external resources and engagement ideas into four quadrants. Used together, the resources in every quadrant help you showcase the Cooperative Difference and ensure you are your members source of power and information. The top half focuses on internal operations and should be reviewed first so your external member engagement efforts are supported by your internal team.
Please review each quadrant of the model below to learn more about our program and resources and email us at
