St. Cloud Technical & Community College President Lori Kloos and Widseth Director of Business Development Joe Breiter are the newest members of Enterprise Minnesota’s board of directors.
The eight-member board oversees and provides strategic guidance to Enterprise Minnesota’s mission of helping manufacturers grow profitably. Both Kloos and Breiter bring a wealth of leadership and management experience and are already valuable additions to the board.
Kloos has been in St. Cloud Technical & Community College’s administration for 26 years, serving as interim president and eventually president. She’s been heavily involved in the college’s effort to work with the U.S. Economic Development Administration to grow the college’s Advanced Manufacturing Center.
Kloos says she believes her unique position as an educator of future workers will be an asset to the board.
“Joining the board felt like a natural fit with what we do here,” she says, “and a perfect place to serve and to learn.”
Breiter, a marketing professional with more than three decades of experience, has worked with Enterprise Minnesota for the past 10 years.
“Marketing and business development are important to the organization,” Breiter says. “I have a tremendous amount of respect for Enterprise Minnesota.”
