The Association represents banks of all sizes in Wisconsin, and nearly 98 percent of banks in the state are WBA members.
Mission

Additional Culture Details
Ensuring that a broad mix of individuals with a variety of ideas, differing viewpoints, thought processes, backgrounds, and experiences play a meaningful role in all aspects of the banking industry is critical to the success of WBA and our members. Embracing differences and promoting equity is at the foundation of WBA as an employer and as a trade association.
Our organization fosters a lively, dynamic culture, where staff regularly comes together for employee engagement and community service activities. Transparency is a priority at WBA; every staff member’s voice is welcomed, and every employee is encouraged to communicate with the CEO. Opportunities for professional development are plentiful at WBA, as staff members are encouraged to take advantage of a selection of more than 90 conferences and events the Association hosts for banking industry professionals. A cross-departmental Innovation Team incorporates feedback from staff to help keep the Association at the forefront in areas ranging from technology use and process optimization to talent recruitment and career enhancement opportunities.
