Welcome to the 2026 MN Nonprofit Executive Leader Summit!

Date: Wednesday May 6th to Friday May 8th

Location: Madden's on Gull Lake

Attendee Overview

Key Aspects of MN Nonprofit Executive Leaders Summit:

We’re an informal group! Dress comfortably and casually and be ready for honest and authentic conversation about the experiences of leading organizations, managing Board members, embracing ongoing change, and navigating work/life alignment.

We aim to leverage the wisdom of each other and the group. Collectively, we have tremendous experience. Someone has always faced the same challenge(s) you’re currently facing. These are the folks you can talk those challenges through with, test and roleplay dialogue, and receive comfort from along the way.

The Summit is a balance of larger groups and smaller connections, more structured and more informal sessions and discussions, with ample time for rest and social interaction.

Cost (includes conference fee, lodging, and five meals): $650 

Rooms: Double Queen or King Lodge Room - These are typical hotel rooms attached to the main building.

If you have lodging or registration questions, please contact Lisa Meredith at lisa@mnccc.gov. 

Scholarships:

Partial scholarships for the 2026 Summit will be open until March 31st.
