[Minnesota Rising] April 2011 Update

Thanks to those who attended our recent Un/Conference 2.0 Brainstorm and Blog Focus Group. We're pleased to be moving ahead in further defining and refining the work of Minnesota Rising!

In April, we kicked off work to convene the process and conversations for developing a generational theme or principles for emerging leaders in Minnesota and their organizations. We'd love your feedback and input in this endeavor! In our initial phase of research, we're looking to identify:

  • Organizations conducting focus groups with Millennials in Minnesota
  • National and statewide reports detailing Millennial demographics, statistics, and data
  • Emerging leader groups across the country that utilize an umbrella or network model
Please email minnesotarising[at]gmail.com if you have suggestions for reports, groups, organizations, or any other intel to share about work that is being done to collaboratively build a network of emerging leaders or engage around generational identity for the common good, either here or elsewhere in the country or world. Thanks for your ideas and input!
