  • President Global Minnesota
    presents President Global Minnesota Ballinger | Leafblad is proud to present the following information on behalf of our client, Global Minnesota, in its search for a President. globalminnesota.org ballingerleafblad.com presenting our client Global Minnesota ORGANIZATIONAL OVERVIEW The Global Minnesota story began in 1953 when it was founded as the International Center for Students and Visitors -- guided by the motto “They came as strangers – may they leave as friends.” Founded by Josef Mestenhauser, Bill Rogers, and Forrest Moore, the organization, later named the Minnesota International Center (MIC), was created as a partnership between the community and the University of Minnesota that engaged ‘Citizen Diplomats’ to connect Minnesotans with visiting students and scholars. It was believed that diplomacy was not the exclusive domain of professional diplomats, but that all walks of society could be involved in international relations. After its founding, MIC evolved from direct service into a multifaceted nonpartisan organization with a mission to promote international understanding and engagement through globally-focused educational opportunities for Minnesota residents of all ages. In March 2016, MIC was rebranded as Global Minnesota to better reflect who it is, what it does, and the dynamic and culturally-diverse state it serves. In 2017, Global Minnesota reached more than 6,000 people through public events, created more than 3,600 hours of meaningful cross-cultural interactions in elementary classrooms across the state, and welcomed nearly 500 international visitors to Minnesota. Today, Global Minnesota is considered to be one of the top affiliates of the World Affairs Councils of America. It is a proud member of Global Ties U.S., the nonprofit arm of the U.S.
