  • Ten Years Ago, Chair Tony Sutton Resigned Because Under His Leadership, the Republican Party of Minnesota Was Financially Bankrupt
    Ten years ago, Chair Tony Sutton resigned because under his leadership, the Republican Party of Minnesota was financially bankrupt. Today, the Party is morally bankrupt due to the leadership of Chair Jennifer Carnahan. This week, thanks to the courageous efforts of a few of the MN GOP State Executive Committee members, the NDAs that have silenced the four of us and many others have been lifted. Since it appears that may change again in just over 24 hours, we felt it was important to take this opportunity – together – to make our voices heard before we are silenced again. As the four most recent MN GOP Executive Directors under Carnahan, we have a unique perspective into the toxic environment, inappropriate behavior and manipulation that she has facilitated. While we did not have knowledge of many of the saddening stories of sexual assault or harassment, unfortunately, we can corroborate and back up many of the other stories that have been shared to date. While Carnahan points to her re-election percentage as to why she should remain, we would argue that race may have had a different outcome if those of us under NDAs – some with non-disparagement clauses – were able to share our stories. And now, due to the blatant lies being pushed by Carnahan, HR Director Ron Huettl, other members of the Executive Committee, and members of the Personnel Committee we believe that it is our duty to do just that. To share our stories while we still can. Carnahan ruled by grudges, retaliation, and intimidation. She delayed sharing lists from candidates for a variety of party offices so “her chosen person” could have a leg up.

  • 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.

  • Global Minnesota Names Mark Ritchie President Nationwide Search Yields Worldly, Collaborative Leader and Passionate Minnesota Advocate
    Contacts: Kathleen Oscarson, Director of Operations, 612-327-8499 [email protected] Paxton Alto, Padilla, 612-481-8122 [email protected] Global Minnesota Names Mark Ritchie President Nationwide search yields worldly, collaborative leader and passionate Minnesota advocate MINNEAPOLIS, November 20, 2018 – Global Minnesota, a nonprofit, nonpartisan organization dedicated to advancing international understanding and engagement, has named Mark Ritchie as its new president. He will assume his new post in January 2019. Ritchie will succeed Carol Engebretson Byrne, who announced her plans to step down in July, after 21 years of service. Under Byrne’s leadership, Global Minnesota created compelling programs statewide on important global topics, advancing international understanding for thousands of Minnesotans while tripling the organization’s revenues. Today, Global Minnesota is one of the top World Affairs Councils in the nation. The Global Minnesota board of directors selected Ritchie after conducting an in-depth, nationwide executive search. In his role as the leader of Minnesota USA Expo, Ritchie led the public-private partnership to host the 2023 World Fair Expo in Minnesota and is currently pursuing the 2027 bid. “Mark brings strong expertise in international affairs and is a recognized advocate for Minnesota – we couldn’t be more pleased to have him as Global Minnesota’s next leader,” said Ertugrul Tuzcu, Global Minnesota board chair. “As an effective cross-sector leader, his strategic acumen and drive will lead Global Minnesota into the next decade of the 21st century – and help raise Minnesota’s profile in the world.” Ritchie’s leadership experience spans government, nonprofit, education and advocacy organizations.
