A CULTURE OF INNOVATION
Encouraging an impactful and creative culture
“We are a firm of entrepreneurs. And let’s face it, people work to be compensated,” said Charnecki. Once associates’ needs are met with pay and benefits, though, “things shift dramatically to a desire for career satisfaction and work engagement.” The company helps encourage those aspirations to engage, learn, grow and create through Wipfli’s formal innovation pipeline; its center for empowerment; and programs like performance coaching, the company’s knowledge base, learning center and a new work alignment platform, which will provide performance metrics to Wipfli associates.
