In the fall of 2021, we asked business leaders in three Wisconsin communities and Kansas City Metro:

  • How their businesses performed in 2021 and performance predictions for 2022
  • Challenges their businesses faced in 2021 and will face in 2022
  • Strategies they implemented in 2021 and plan to implement in 2022

The resulting Business Statistics & Trends Report provides a hyper-local snapshot of how businesses in our Wisconsin and Kansas City communities are contending with variables like the supply chain, consumer demand, hiring constraints, and the ongoing battle with COVID-19.

In a compelling video presentation, Nancy Johnshoy, CFA, Senior Vice President – Portfolio Manager & Market Strategist, overlays data from the Business Statistics & Trends Report with market and economic data to show compelling trends locally and nationally.
