BOARD RETREAT
The VHEDC Board of Directors get together for a Board Retreat each year to focus on the strategic planning for the year . The 2024 Board Retreat was on February 7 at the Buerkle Honda Event Center in Vadnais Heights .
Led by Hoglund Coaching President Nancy Hoglund , the retreat provides members of our organization with an opportunity to discuss our priorities . Once the overall roadmap is laid out , board members meet in break-out sessions , and then present ideas for the upcoming year .
Several new ideas come up during brainstorming , and the board is able to share strategies on how to move forward .
