MNsure, Other State Exchange Top Feds on Enrollment
From the MINNEAPOLIS STAR TRIBUNE: Insurance enrollment via state-based health insurance exchanges such as Minnesota's MNsure held steady for 2018, while sign-ups declined about 5 percent across the much larger group of states using the federal government's HealthCare.gov website. The findings by the National Academy for State Health Policy raise a question about whether the intensity of outreach campaigns contributed to the difference, since the Trump administration limited marketing for the federal exchange while MNsure and other state-based groups maintained efforts.

Leadership Shakopee 2018
 Have you been wondering if Leadership Shakopee is the right fit for you? This is what 2017 class graduate, Rodney Southwood, President & CEO of Freight Management Logistics, has to say about Leadership Shakopee.
Someone once said to me "Build your own dreams or someone else will hire you to build theirs"
When we had the opportunity to sign up for this class I was certain I wouldn't have the time for it and thought, how could this possibly benefit me?
Well I must say I have been rewarded with lifelong friends and a deeper understanding of Shakopee businesses and their leaders. From the Jail to the Courthouse, to the Casino we went and learned as a group, asked questions, laughed and bonded! This one-day event actually became a day, each month, I got excited about. (I even rearranged my travel schedule so as to not miss a class)
This should be on any serious Management or Leader's radar as a way to inject yourself into the fabric of a community, while furthering your business acumen with expertise and other like-minded individuals!
Opportunity knocks but it has never been known to turn the handle and walk in. To those thinking about enrolling I would say "you don't get wet if you don't jump in the pool". Open the door, walk in, the waters warm, and a year's worth of genuine, life changing experiences are waiting for you!
