Wipfli Employee Perspectives
"The support doesn’t come from any one individual. The sales infrastructure for our sales team is made up of executives, performance coaches and peer advisors. Each persona helps in different ways. Whatever the goal, the infrastructure can help. It could be as simple as hitting your numbers or as complex as becoming a partner."
Our coaching program has grown into a full-fledged professional coaching practice at Wipfli, serving more than 200 leaders across the firm. Today, we have a blended team of three internal and four external executive coaches, all certified by the International Coaching Federation (ICF) at the PCC level or higher, led by a dedicated program manager and executive coach. Ninety-five percent of our leaders achieve the goals they set during coaching sessions. And our engagement and retention metrics remain strong.
One of our pillars is curiosity. We have dedicated learning and development teams, but we also know one size never fits all in growth and development — it’s a super personalized journey.
