• Legal, regulatory, compliance, or risk management experience

• Technology, IT and AI experience
• Entrepreneurship, small business ownership, or small business leadership
• Marketing, brand strategy, communications, public relations, or member/customer engagement
• Leadership experience within Greater Minnesota communities, helping ensure the Board reflects the geographic diversity of our membership
