Did you know northeast Wisconsin was once one of the preeminent business communities in the United States?

It’s true. In the 1980s and 90s, companies like Krueger International, Fort Howard Paper Company, Schneider National and Schreiber Foods were leaders in innovation, creative solutions and cutting-edge technology, unlike anyone else in the U.S.  In this re-issue of The Golden Age of Brown County Enterprise, author Phil Hauck outlines these historic and successful business strategies through interviews with local industry leaders, showcasing the  incredible success of businesses whose names are part of the bedrock of the community.

Phil Hauck was a former writer for the Wall Street Journal who spent thirty years facilitating CEO Groups for The Executive Committee and its successor, Vistage, as well as a Senior Marketing/Sales Executive group.

The Teaching Press was saddened to learn of Phil’s passing in late 2023, and we’re proud to be reissuing his book. In keeping with the family’s wishes, proceeds will support student learning at The Teaching Press— a small and innovative Green Bay business  in its  own right,  for which Phil Hauck raised funding, awareness, and support.
