FMR Executive Director Whitney Clark named transformational leader
FMR is proud to announce that our very own executive director, Whitney Clark, won the Minnesota Council of Nonprofits' 2017 Transformational Leader Award.
Whitney has often expressed that he strongly relates to E.B. White’s comment, “I arise in the morning torn between a desire to improve the world and a desire to enjoy the world.” But to his friends and colleagues, these appear to be one and the same.
Our metro Mississippi River and its communities would not be what they are today without your leadership. Congrats, Whitney!
Farewell, John!
