John Werner, Sr. VP & Chief Strategy Officer, Schreiber Foods
“It ain’t what you don’t know that gets you in trouble. It’s what you know for sure that just ain’t so.” This statement, often attributed to Mark Twain, has been written on the wall in my office for the past four years. Around that time, Schreiber Foods had implemented a new organizational structure to support a recently developed, long-term growth strategy. Along with my teammates, I had the opportunity to take on new challenges and learn new skills to deliver growth for our company and impact to our communities. At that point, I felt like I had a lot of things figured out in life. Little did I know, when I wrote those words on the wall, the volume of change I was about to face: a pandemic, supply chain shortages, inflation, and more. Click Success with Strategic Foresight.

What does the future hold for religion, spirituality, and institutions and communities like ours that promote spiritual growth and development? Click Spirituality Futures Day.

Catholic Charities of the Diocese of Green Bay began when the Rev. Paul P. Rhode was appointed to the position of Bishop. His familiarity with outreach to the poor prompted Bishop Rhode to conduct a local survey which highlighted needs for services within the Green Bay area. He created a plan to implement a social services arm of the Diocese of Green Bay.
