Those experiences became the foundation of the relentless pursuit of excellence for its own sake. We encourage out-of-the-box thinking without fear of repercussion for mistakes. We never settle for ‘good enough.’ We practice disciplined differentiation, systematically seeking superior solutions with the unwavering belief that we will find them.”
  2. Steve Richman Group president, Milwaukee Tool “It starts with our people. We attract, recruit and invest in the best. We drive a culture of being candid, obsessed, agile and working as one team. That’s our ‘secret sauce.’ We create empowered leaders driving innovation and success, while relentlessly focusing on our customers and end users.”    [caption id="attachment_551665" align="alignleft" width="1280"] Steve Richman[/caption]

Last year we talked about creating a new brand for Milwaukee’s Black community. There were huge risks. Today, 101.7 The Truth is generating results and having a positive impact.

  4.

It’s about approaching new products with the art and science that made beverages like Black Bavarian and Sprecher Root Beer as iconic as they are today.” [caption id="attachment_551668" align="alignnone" width="300"] Tim Cigelske[/caption]
  5. Jason Westhoff President, Cousins Subs “Cousins Subs holds monthly, in-person, GM meetings to inform, train and receive feedback from the most critical leaders in our organization. This allows us to make better decisions that directly impact our teams. One point of feedback resulted in daily pay, which allows employees to collect 50% of their hours worked the day after they are worked to better meet their individual financial needs.” [caption id="attachment_551663" align="alignnone" width="300"] Jason Westhoff[/caption]
