Join us for the next of MPI Minnesota’s focus groups. These events are designed to facilitate collaborative discussions with MPI Minnesota leadership, hear from members and nonmembers and receive feedback on our chapter, activities and programs.
This is an excellent opportunity to connect and network as well with others in attendance before and after the discussion as well.
Your feedback will be used to help us assess our chapter and offerings so that we can make modifications as needed to increase member engagement by:
• increasing event attendance
• improving the quality and depth of our education
• staying relevant in our partnership offerings
• better understanding the value and demands of volunteering
Topics covered in the focus group will be:
• Membership
• Education & Events
• Sponsorship
• Volunteerism
