TOP THINGS TO KNOW

State Office Building for sale

CBRE has officially listed the State Office Building, 1313 Farnam St., for sale. Nebraska Examiner reported last month that the Nebraska Department of Administrative Services acknowledged that the building is in an area of high interest. The 180,000-square-foot building comes with a 400-space parking garage across Harney Street.

Elevator expands to lincoln

Following strong momentum in Omaha and Des Moines, and ahead of its Kansas City launch in fall 2025, Elevator will open a 25,077-square-foot co-warehousing community on the fifth floor of the iconic Atrium building in the heart of downtown Lincoln. Blending office suites, micro-warehousing and shared workspace, Elevator gives entrepreneurs and small businesses the flexibility to grow without the burden of long-term leases or disjointed logistics. Members can access private offices, co-working areas and warehouse space on a month-to-month basis with all amenities included.

Iowa DNR acquires property

A new addition is coming to the Loess Hills State Forest in western Iowa after Iowa Natural Heritage Foundation transferred the former Little Sioux Scout Ranch to the Iowa Department of Natural Resources. According to a release, the 1,776-acre property sits on the western slope of the Loess Hills in Monona County, about halfway between Sioux City and Council Bluffs. The site offers numerous opportunities for outdoor recreation such as hiking, bird-watching, wilderness camping, fishing and hunting. The property also has dozens of miles of established trails that will link to the surrounding state forest and a 20-acre lake with excellent fishing. The property will be open to the public after boundary signs are installed in late June. A public celebration is tentatively planned for Friday, Sept. 26.

Omaha Economic Index rises

In the first quarter of 2025, the Omaha Economic Index grew slightly, rising to 190.2 from 188.9. Overall, the index climbed by 1.3 points quarter-over-quarter and by 13.1 points compared to the same period last year. Among the major drivers of this growth are the average price of residential new construction, up almost 16 percent over the previous year at $496,538. Wages, calculated from hourly wages and average weekly earnings, were also up almost 44% compared to 2010 levels.

Inflation rose less than expected

Consumer prices rose less than expected in May, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reported on June 11. The consumer price index, a broad-based measure of goods and services across the sprawling U.S. economy, increased 0.1% for the month putting the annual inflation rate at 2.4%. Economists surveyed by Dow Jones had been looking for respective readings of 0.2% and 2.4%.

Mayor retains staff

Newly elected Mayor John Ewing stated in a press conference that he plans to initially retain the head of every city department and most of outgoing Mayor Jean Stothert’s staff members, from chief of staff on down. Ewing cited continuity in his decision. In related news, Erin Grace was announced as Ewing’s press secretary, replacing longtime press liaison Carrie Murphy, who is retiring.

Dave Parker Elevates 70-Year-Old Company

SHEPPARD’S BUSINESS INTERIORS

Omaha in 1955 was a much different city than Omaha in 2025. Throughout the 1950s, work in Omaha began to change from factory jobs to more white-collar settings. The insurance, banking, finance and real estate industries grew rapidly with companies like Northwestern Bell Telephone and Northern Natural Gas constructing their corporate headquarters in Omaha.

The rise of more white-collar jobs meant the rise of more office spaces. One company has been in Omaha to accommodate that rise: Sheppard’s Business Interiors.

Joseph Sheppard started the business in 1955 with eight employees. Throughout most of its 70-year existence, the company has been aligned with Steelcase.

“I don’t know how, or why, they suggested going with Steelcase, but I think it was the best decision anybody ever made,” said current chairman and CEO Dave Parker. “We all participate with each other as far as opportunities, and a little-known fact is that our largest client is a local company here who has offices in 47 different states. When we redo their offices, which happens every three to five years, in different locations, the product is specified and designed and ordered out of Omaha.”

By 1970, Sheppard’s Business Interiors had incorporated as a company. By 1985, they had moved twice to larger facilities and employed 45 people. Five years later, the Sheppard family was out of the business.

“Back in the late ’80s, I was running a diversified holding company,” Parker said. “One

day, the attorney who represented this holding company got stuck in traffic on 72nd Street out in front of Sheppard’s, and said, ‘You know, we gotta buy SBI.’”

Parker and his attorney knew the company had a great reputation and quality products.

“I didn’t know a thing about the office furniture business. I didn’t know a thing about what drove this market,” Parker said. “So I had to learn a lot in a short period of time… we took a shot in the dark on this one.”

After Parker bought Sheppard’s Business Interiors in 1990, the respected company began to reach new heights.

“I guess it goes back to business development … I went down to a big bank downtown to meet with their facilities person and bid on a project that they were working on,” Parker said, while declining to name the person or the bank. “We’ve ended up bidding several projects with them. We won some. We didn’t win others.

“The person who was in charge of facilities kind of helped me along the way. Whenever we lost a deal, I said, ‘OK, I’m not complaining. Can you help me understand why we didn’t get that job — was it price, was it product, was it service?’ He coached me along the way and I think I learned pretty quickly.”

In the first 15 years of Parker’s leadership, Sheppard’s revenue doubled and it has grown significantly since that time. One reason is the ever-evolving nature of design.

MIDLANDS BUSINESS JOURNAL

SBI has a very bright future. They are the dominant leader in the Omaha market and they set a very high bar for others.

“It seems like every five to seven, or five to 10 years … (design) goes from one phase to another phase,” Parker said.

In the years Sheppard’s Business interiors has been around, office design has gone from corporate offices being completely autonomous from the outside world — with open plan floors where workers could be placed virtually anywhere — to the cubicle farms of the 1980s and 1990s, then back to the open floor plans of today. But where 1950s offices were more about the use of air-conditioning and fluorescent lighting, today’s open floor plans are about collaboration and mobility.

Sheppard’s has created offices for each phase of design even when they weren’t expecting change. Parker noted throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, the company worked every single day.

“There’s been a lot of talk about bringing people back to the office, but people like the opportunity to work remotely, or working in a … more flexible, modified environment. So you learn an awful lot,” Parker said. “To me, it’s interesting because the information you and I read about is that corporations are trying to bring everybody back into the office. But unlike Omaha, many of those cities have a lot more expensive commutes.

“Omaha, it’s a 30-minute city. It used to be a 20-minute city. So you’re trying to figure out, along with your clients, what’s the best answer? ‘What’s the best solution for what you’re going to really need?’”

The company has worked on many large contracts for the Omaha market, designing interiors as diverse as Omaha’s Henry Doorly Zoo & Aquarium Education Center, Mutual of Omaha, and Munroe-Meyer Institute. In a 2005 MBJ article, Parker said working on the Union Pacific Headquarters (completed in 2004) provided “50 percent of a normal year’s billings.”

SHEPPARD’S BUSINESS INTERIORS

I didn’t know a thing about the office furniture business. I didn’t know a thing about what drove this market… we took a shot in the dark on this one.

More than the nature of the design business, the growth of Sheppard’s Business Interiors has come from Parker and his employees making personal connections. “I think the Omaha market is a very relationship-driven market and we have not grown to the size we are today without those relationships,” Parker said. “I found that out early on in the business and have worked hard at that and our team works hard at

not only developing those relationships but then staying in touch with people.”

Parker also noted that his relationship model means connecting with many people at a company.

“I have a business philosophy of having relationships, not only at the CEO level and the facilities level, but there’s levels between there,” he said. “That’s finance, procurement, design, so you have a relationship base of four or five people in any one business.

“I always worried about if somebody just woke up in the morning and fell out of bed and banged their head and said, ‘You know what, I don’t like Sheppard’s anymore. I’m going to go someplace else.’ It’s easier if you have multiple layers of satisfied clients to maybe get them to rethink that decision.”

Lynn Fordon, regional vice president at Steelcase, echoed this statement, and said. “In Omaha, you have access to CFOs, CTOs, CEOs. In Chicago there’s no way I would get that kind of access, you’re three or four levels below that, but, (I do in Omaha) because of their relationships to Dave and his family in the market.”

Fordon also said that key to the company’s growth under Parker has been his constant quest to improve.

“There’s been one message he’s been consistent about, that’s around us expanding his health care portfolio so that he can sell more Steelcase instead of non-Steelcase brands,” she said. “He’s been consistent with that communication with me, to product marketing, about the category of health care within Steelcase, and finally, we’re launching a category of Steelcase next year.”

Although Steelcase requires that 70 percent of all purchases in a dealerpartnership’s furniture come from their brands, Parker is also interested in giving Omahans the quality that Steelcase produces. That’s why he is not shy about making suggestions to the manufacturer on improvements.

“He did share why we were losing to competition,” Fordon said. “It might have been attributes of our recliner being too big, or not enough diversity within a single line of seating. We were historically launching things that are more singular in nature as opposed to a family. So, he helped us to think about things more broadly for this line.”

While Parker himself has been a driving factor in the success of Sheppard’s Business Interiors, he freely shares credit with the people around him. These days, Parker is cultivating the next generation of SBI.

“I have an incredibly strong team that adapts to that quite well,” Parker said. “Now it’s the next generation coming up in these corporations and businesses that, you know, we work hard to develop those relationships and keep those relationships.”

Company leadership now includes people in their 30s and 40s, and Parker has been intentional about cultivating a team that will take things to new and even greater heights. No matter if Parker and his team are designing individual offices or hospital waiting rooms, Fordon sees a lot that points toward the company continuing to be successful.

“SBI has a very bright future,” she said. “They are the dominant leader in the Omaha market and they set a very high bar for others. They continue to diversify their business for growth. It has been a true pleasure working with them directly the past 14 years.”

TRADE SCHOOLS PROVIDE REAL-WORLD TRAINING FOR SKILLED CAREERS

Skilled careers are not just jobs, they’re essential roles that make a real difference in the world.

When Chris Roseland graduated high school, he pursued education at a local trade school. That ultimately led him to his role at Backlund Plumbing 32 years ago and now he holds the position of president where he and his team of 75 people serve residential and commercial customers across Omaha.

Roseland shared that he was interested in going into the trades because of the many advantages that come with trade work — especially the opportunity for immediate job prospects that allowed him to earn a living while honing his skills.

Whether it’s today’s generation of high school graduates contemplating their place in the workforce or other individuals shifting gears to switch to a new career, Roseland isn’t the only one to recognize the benefits of trade jobs. Growth in the trades has skyrocketed in recent years, as they are meaningful careers that pay well, offering flexibility and the prospect of advancement.

Trade schools offer an alternative to traditional four-year college degrees and help train workers who become the backbone of America’s future and healthy economy. The training needed for various trade jobs is often shorter, more affordable and can offer unique on-the-job training opportunities. This makes them attractive to hands-on learners and those seeking a fulfilling and secure career.

- DR. DAN KINNEY, PRESIDENT, IOWA WESTERN COMMUNITY COLLEGE

Jobs in demand

Dr. Dan Kinney, president of Iowa Western Community College, said the school offers a variety of career and technical education programs such as welding, auto tech, construction, electrical, HVAC, plumbing, aviation maintenance and many more. He said there’s been a steep increase in enrollment for these programs in recent years. In fact, all of them are at capacity for enrollment and many have a waiting list to get in.

“Many students are looking at their return on investment and are looking at these programs, as they are in high demand and offer high salary positions,” he said. “Skilled careers play a vital role in today’s economy by offering practical, hands-on education that leads directly to in-demand jobs. These programs provide a faster, more affordable path to stable and wellpaying careers…often without the burden of significant student debt.”

Roseland agreed, sharing that the average Omaha licensed plumber can earn upwards of $50 per hour, not including incentives and overtime.

“I truly believe that the skilled trades are becoming an increasingly attractive option for students leaving high school,” he said. “We’re seeing a rise in the number of applicants seeking work during their senior year, which is a positive trend given the shortage of skilled journeymen the industry has faced in recent years.’

Kinney also spoke of the need within the workforce for trade jobs.

I truly believe that the skilled trades are becoming an increasingly attractive option for students leaving high school.

PLUMBING

“More and more businesses want a workforce yesterday and that’s starting to drive students into the trade programs,” he said. “If you’re a young person considering a skilled career, know that you’re exploring a path filled with opportunity, stability and purpose.”

National need

The numbers demonstrate the high demand for these roles nationwide, too. For example, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics projects that in the construction industry, 154,000 jobs will be added annually in the next decade; HVAC careers will grow by 441,200 in the next eight years; and the employment of electricians will grow by 11% by 2033. These numbers are just a glimpse into the potential opportunities that await.

“Whether you’re interested in building, fixing, creating or caring for others, there’s likely a trade that matches your strengths and passions,” Kinney said. “Don’t be afraid to explore your options, ask questions and try things out — skilled careers are not just jobs, they’re essential roles that make a real difference in the world.”

HIGHER education Clifton Strengths Institute

PREPARES STUDENTS FOR FUTURE WORKPLACE

University of Nebraska-Lincoln’s The Clifton Strengths Institute celebrates a decade in operation and is conducting research to evaluate the success of its program by seeking specific career and life outcomes in its survey.

The Institute prepares students to thrive in meaningful careers via training through strengths and leadership workshops and coaching.

Founding Executive Director Mark Pogue pioneered the implementation of strengths development on the UNL campus before his passing in 2018, and his original mission still thrives under Executive Director Tim Hodges’ care.

Hodges instructs 1,000 freshmen College of Business students each year, providing them with one-on-one strengths coaching experiences and helping them leverage their strengths every day. By focusing on CliftonStrengths, students turn natural talents into strengths by investing in them through practice and adding knowledge and skills.

“Investing in Strengths” is a course taught by Hodges that helps students discover, develop and apply their strengths to create an individual success plan that boosts self-awareness and encourages personal wellbeing, engagement, academic success and career confidence.

“It’s a great welcome mat to help you figure out who you are and who

You’re 18 years old and you’re starting college for the first time… We see them grow in their confidence because now they’re clearer about who they are.
-TIM HODGES, EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR, THE CLIFTON STRENGTHS INSTITUTE

you might become,” Hodges said. He also works with student strengths coaches who serve a recitation weekly.

Each student gets two one-on-one coaching sessions about their top five strengths.

Hodge mentioned that he observes students discussing Strengths course material outside of class as student coaching sessions are due.

“It’s just so awesome to walk around campus during the weeks that their coaching session is due and it could be at the Union, in the atrium of our building or a park bench in front of Morrill Hall,” Hodges said. “You walk around campus and there’s two people sitting together, there’s a better than average chance they’re talking about their strengths.”

He mentioned identify formation, including independence and challenging values, that happens during the first year.

“I love that during that rich context for development, we require that they learn some great things about themselves,” he said. “You’re 18 years old and you’re starting college for the first time, and you just moved here from Chicago or from a small town in Nebraska or from across Lincoln. We see them grow in their confidence because now they’re clearer about who they are.

“It’s just that level of clarity about here’s who I am and how I show up in these circumstances in a confident and authentic way.”

UNL researcher Don Clifton, the father of strengths-based psychology, coined a phrase in the 1970s regarding education. Hodges has it memorized, having been a colleague and even serving as Clifton’s research assistant for a few years.

“Our greatest contribution is to be sure that there’s a teacher in every classroom who cares about every student, every day, who learns and grows and feels like a real human being. Isn’t that awesome?” he said. “I still remember Don. He used to hold his index finger and his middle finger together and he’d kinda point at you when he would say, ‘learns and grows and feels like a real human being.’ Those memories are seared in.

“(Clifton and I) published a couple of articles and book chapters together. To take that investment that he made in me and share that with students here…I probably smile at work more often than most people.”

Decades later the assessment continues to spread.

“It’s one of those Nebraska things; there’s 35 million people who’ve taken the (CliftonStrengths) assessment, but most people don’t know it started literally across the sidewalk from where I’m at right now (at UNL),” Hodges said. “It’s becoming the language of business and education.”

BANKING part 2

SUPPLY

The Right Financing Tool for the Job

CHAIN AND SEASONALITY GIVE RISE TO MORE CUSTOMIZED LENDING OPTIONS

Technology advancements will continue to influence business banking products.

The ripples of the COVID-19 crisis and associated supply chain gridlock have reached nearly every aspect of the business community, and the banking and finance industries are no exception. Consumers and businesses alike all discovered electronic banking options by necessity but have since come back to the fold in the desire for the human touch as well, forcing banks and credit unions to be more creative and more responsive, arguably, than ever before.

One need only look to the range of lending and credit services offered in the midlands to see this mentality in action. Lending institutions have doubled down on the consultative approach to their customers to help them tailor loans and utilize lines of credit to optimal benefit despite such variables as seasonality and inventory management

“With the various supply chain disruptions which have occurred during the past several years, it is more important than ever for borrowers and lenders to have a mutual understanding of inventory needs and management,” said Kevin Svec, senior vice president of business banking with Centris Federal Credit Union.

“Without the proper controls in place, businesses may be susceptible to shocks which could negatively impact profitability or their reputation in the market.”

ONE THAT NAVIGATES.

Custom is king

Espousing the benefits of understanding the customer’s needs is hardly a new sentiment, but as Svec points out, such statements have taken on more gravitas over the past five years. Companies are more attuned than ever as to the disastrous effect of supply line interruption and financial institutions that don’t share that level of understanding of their customers’ needs do so at their own peril.

Conversely, lenders who immerse themselves in the issues facing their clients gain the advantage of offering a range of financing options tailor-made to each situation and circumstance.

“Business loans can be structured to align repayment terms with incoming cashflow streams,” he said. “This allows for higher payments during peak activity periods and lower payments — interest-only as an example — during the off-season.

“Deposit products with higher interest rates, such as money market accounts, are also available to provide a more favorable return on investment during the times when excess deposits aren’t utilized for day-to-day working capital needs.”

Svec predicted technology will bring about even more creativity in lending products and processes, helping financial institutions provide ever-more

customized solutions to their clients’ financial needs.

“Technology advancements will continue to influence business banking products,” he said. “Newer programs such as FedNow provide the capability to move funds faster and easier. In addition, the ongoing evolution of AI will be impactful for a variety of reasons. AI will provide a path for financial institutions to better understand both internal and market data, thus allowing them to better design products for their client base.”

The human touch

Mack La Rock, chief banking officer with ACCESSbank, agreed, saying despite the proliferation of electronic and app-based banking tools introduced in the name of convenience, robust and informed personal relationships continue to define winners and losers in the banking space.

“The right financing depends largely on a business’s stage of growth, its specific needs and the collateral available,” he said. “Whether the goal is expansion, managing seasonal fluctuations or funding a large purchase, understanding the business’s maturity and financial foundation is key to identifying the most suitable options.

“That’s where a strong relationship with a knowledgeable banker becomes especially valuable. A banker who understands the business’s operation and trajectory can help unpack which tools are viable. For example, a company with solid receivables but limited fixed assets may benefit from a different structure than one with strong equity but unpredictable cash flow.”

La Rock said in the best of such relationships, technology can be an invaluable

“Financial products for small businesses are getting smarter by the day,” he said. “Already, we are beginning to see rapid developments in AI-powered credit tools and predictive cash flow models. These technologies will continue to create speed, efficiency and convenience, especially for businesses looking for quick access to capital or automated insights.

“As powerful as those innovations are, we don’t believe they replace the need for thoughtful, real-world advice. When a business is trying to scale, expand locations, hire strategically or invest in equipment, the conversation often goes beyond what a dashboard or algorithm can see. A seasoned banker can think creatively, structure deals that align with a company’s growth plans, and flag opportunities or risks that tech alone might miss.”

In summary, La Rock said, the most effective client relationships will feature the best of both worlds.

“We see the future of banking as a balanced mix,” he said, “utilizing the efficiency of digital tools paired with the kind of sound guidance that only comes from a trusted advisor who knows the whole story.”

What’s hot now

Some of the specific product innovations already at work in the marketplace reflect this sensitivity to the real-world situations in which business clients often find themselves. At First National Bank of Omaha, for example, an innovative new approach to lines of credit is reducing red tape experienced by customers.

“FNBO has innovated by extending fully collateralized operating credit lines from traditional 12-month terms to 24-month terms,” said Melissa Siedlik, senior director of small business banking.

Siedlik said the change offers customers three key benefits in time savings, as it eliminates annual requalification and documentation requirements, and

cost efficiency in that it reduces expenses associated with frequent underwriting cycles. It also allows operational focus, allowing customers to concentrate on business growth rather than administrative requirements

“This approach is particularly beneficial for financially stable customers with consistent inventory performance, providing streamlined access to working capital while maintaining appropriate risk standards for the bank.”

The company has been equally innovative when it comes to accommodating business customers’ seasonality issues and their effect on cash flow.

MELISSA SIEDLIK

“We offer three primary financial tools to help small businesses navigate seasonal income fluctuations,” she said. “Operating lines of credit provide accessible working capital during offseasons for covering operational expenses, with flexible repayment during peak revenue periods to match business cycles, while business credit cards offer a flexible solution for smaller cash flow gaps with added benefits like cash-back rewards and no monthly/annual fees.

SENIOR DIRECTOR OF SMALL BUSINESS BANKING, FNBO

“Finally, our cash flow forecasting and management tools deliver realtime cash position insights through accounting software integration, helping businesses anticipate and plan for seasonal fluctuations.”

Siedlik echoed her colleagues’ assertion on the importance of maintaining a personal relationship with a qualified business banker in determining what product or products are best for use in a given situation.

“The recommended solution depends on the business’s specific seasonality patterns, revenue reliability and overall financial condition,” she said.

HOURS: MON. CLOSED TUES-THURS: 3 P.M. – 9 P.M. FRI: 1 P.M. – 9 P.M. SAT: 10 A.M. – 9 P.M. SUN: 10 A.M. – 8 P.M.

If dogs could talk, Omaha Dog Bar owner Leah Thrasher said, they would surely say something along the lines of, “As long as you’re a good person and you give me love, treat me kindly, we’re going to like you.” They would probably ask for everything Omaha Dog Bar offers for themselves and their beloved humans, she added.

“We’re truly one of a kind. We are permitted to be dog-friendly inside and out. That is truly unique; there’s no other place like this in Omaha,” Thrasher said. “We can have dogs inside and out and have food and drink in the same space… We’re truly ‘Dogs are first.’ We’re dog-focused. Everything from the flooring to the walls to the cleaning solutions we use are dog-safe and dog-friendly.”

Omaha Dog Bar’s tagline is “Happiest Place in Omaha,” and Thrasher said she strives for an upbeat, inclusive atmosphere in a facility that combines a dog park, doggie day care and dog baths with a full bar and eatery, event accommodations and retail space. The establishment for adults 18 and over encourages dog parents to bring the fur baby along for “a day of fun and relaxation while you sip on a cold beverage and savor some tasty bites.”

The business recently celebrated its four-year anniversary. Thrasher said she’s proud Omaha Dog Bar is not only woman-owned but has also been recognized locally by Best of Omaha in the Best Dog Day Care and Best New Bar categories and nationally as one of USA Today’s 10 Best Dog Bars.

Dogged determination

The honors are nice, but establishing the innovative business was challenging, Thrasher said. Her marketing management degree, graphic design experience and past work with the restaurant

industry served her well, but the singular nature of Omaha Dog Bar as a restaurant and bar that’s dog-friendly inside and out made the process of getting permits and zoning approval and waivers in place particularly stressful.

“They don’t make it easy, that’s for sure,” Thrasher said, “but I learned a lot during that process.”

With the benefit of hindsight, Thrasher said she’s glad she didn’t give up on bringing her concept to life. However, she also said she wished she had considered seasonal factors and come up with additional offerings sooner to counteract traffic fluctuations on the bar and restaurant side of things.

“I would have started with doggie day care or some other service when I first opened, because when I first opened, we just did the dog bar,” she said. “Our (restaurant/bar) business drops significantly during the winter… no matter how big or amazing your inside area is like in the winter, dog owners just kind of go into hibernation.”

In October 2023, Thrasher launched weekday doggie day care.

“So, literally every minute of every day that we’re open, we’re doing something. Before, we were closed on Mondays, and then Tuesday-Wednesday-Thursday we opened 3 p.m. to 8 p.m. or 9 p.m.; part of the day was just an empty facility that I’m paying on,” she said. “Our day care — it fluctuates a little bit — now is about 30% of our business.”

Her own dogs enjoy the facility, Thrasher said, another sign that Omaha Dog Bar is a success.

“I created this because I love dogs and I love Omaha, but I had no idea what it would become,” she said. “I wanted a place that portrayed friendliness and welcoming, and it took off on its own, lives and breathes on its own. I had a good intention, but this is not (only) me anymore; it is its own community.”

Chocolat Abeille

L’amour du Chocolat

Chocolat Abeille is French for “chocolate bee” — hence the chocolate boutique’s honeybee-themed logo — and pronounced shoke-o-la a-bay, but in any language its fine chocolates are both beautiful and delicious, said Diane Stormberg.

“I love the product,” she said. “It’s artisan. Everything about it I just think is wonderful.”

Stormberg loved Chocolat Abeille so much that her role expanded from serving as a consultant last fall to joining the team in January as a partial owner to provide leadership in marketing and managing the operation. Her background was in health care and higher education but Stormberg’s unique professional experience has proven to be exactly what the small business needed.

“They were a wonderful chocolaterie, wonderful customer service,” Stormberg said, “but they hadn’t been in a corporate world. They hadn’t been in marketing… There were so many things that I thought I could make a difference with and so here I am trying to make that difference.”

An important first step was analyzing financials to make sure the pricing for the finished products was appropriate, especially since chocolate supplier costs have risen dramatically in recent months.

“My research brain is like, ‘So, we need to figure your labor into this. We need to figure the chocolate costs. We need to figure the mold, what is invested in this,’” she said. “How can you price them, not knowing, particularly, your labor? The chocolate (cost) I can find out but they do so much meticulous, beautiful embellishments, ideas, artistry. We need to capture that better.”

Chocolat Abeille’s chocolates are carefully crafted works of art, Stormberg said, combining all-natural ingredients and high quality couverture chocolate with nature-inspired design. The boutique’s chocolate artisans make chocolates throughout the day, handpainting 21 signature varieties and a rotation of seasonal and special offerings with colored cocoa butters. Four of the signature

pieces are even combined with wildflower honey from the shop’s own bees. Customers can purchase individual chocolates or create boxes of nine or 18 pieces in-store or online.

The chocolaterie also offers custom orders for corporate events and special occasions, which means not only its signature designs but working with clients on unique creations that incorporate elements from business logos to icons meaningful to a guest of honor.

Stormberg said one of her principal goals is to help more people discover Chocolat Abeille and all it has to offer. The artisans have always maintained a high standard of quality, meaning imperfect specimens did not make it to the display case. Today, Stormberg uses those cosmetically unsatisfactory chocolates as samples, which not only stimulates future business but sometimes also leads to on-the-spot orders.

“I look at daily sales and I know what sells in the store, and it’s our signature chocolate, of course. What wasn’t selling were these beautiful 3D high heels and animals and so many of the things that if you saw them, you would say, ‘Oh my gosh, I need to have that!’” she said. “So, right before Valentine’s Day, I felt it was really important to get that word out… I’m schlepping (samples) around as the chocolate fairy.”

She’s always considering what small and large actions can help take Chocolat Abeille to the next level, Stormberg said. For example, she’s been exploring shipping options (“They’re too fragile unless we come up with some new packaging.”) and donated the shop’s piano to a care facility to make room for more seating to accommodate teas and other fun in-store events or private parties.

“I want to do baby showers and bridal showers. There’s just so much opportunity,” she said. “You can tell I’m passionate about it. We welcome everyone to come and see us, have a cup of tea and enjoy a chocolate.”

PAM FINN

PLACE OF BIRTH: OMAHA

EDUCATION: DOANE COLLEGE AND PATRICIA STEVENS COLLEGE OF DESIGN

PAM FINN HELPS OTHERS REALIZE THEIR DREAMS

There are those who succeed by working their way up the corporate ladder and then there are a select few people like Pam Finn who built their own ladder and used it to scale the walls of conventional thinking, kicking in a few doors and windows along the way.

Finn, an Omaha native, has made a career out of the counterintuitive, leaving behind the comfort and constriction of corporate life to courageously blaze her own trail and succeed on her own terms. It all started when she was a rising star at Payless ShoeSource, a career path she would trade for an entrepreneurial venture, Creative Enterprises, to the astonishment of those around her.

“I was corporate for about 10 years when I decided to leave corporate life when I was about 30,” she said. “Both of my parents worked for Union Pacific, they were corporate people. They had no idea why I was leaving a really good job and why I would want to start my own company.

“I didn’t even know anyone that owned a business, really. I just happened to see a niche, you could call it, and I thought, ‘I’ll go for it.’”

Thinking back on the move, she lets out a warm, round laugh.

“Sometimes being young and naive is better than being smart and analyzing everything,” she said.

Even today, the vision of Creative Enterprises sounds ambitious to the point of preposterous. In the late 1980s and 1990s, Finn spent a lot of time abroad for Payless, where she noticed the major athletic companies were just starting to establish a presence in Asia.

“The athletic companies were just beginning to send people over to design and manufacture shoes and apparel over there but they weren’t doing anything in the middle. They weren’t doing sport bags, they weren’t doing socks, they weren’t

Sometimes being young and naive is better than being smart and analyzing everything.

doing anything like that,” she said. “So I just left my job and decided to go after that niche. Got a bag from Champion and a bag from Nike Europe and a bag from Adidas and it all started there.”

In 1992, the idea of a woman forming relationships with major companies across continents from scratch was almost inconceivable, yet that was precisely what Finn would accomplish. Creative Enterprises would grow into an international design and manufacturing company specializing in branded athletic accessories for major sporting goods companies. In time, the company would maintain offices in Hong Kong, Madrid and the U.S. and list Champion, Nike Europe, Adidas, Reebok, the National Basketball Association and the National Football League as clients.

Upon sale of the venture, Finn then transitioned to business development at Burlington Capital. There, she led the turnaround and sale of a business unit, became a managing member of Fund VI Multifamily Real Estate Fund, and co-founded Proven Ventures Fund One. She regularly advises private equity firms, venture-backed businesses and privately held companies on matters of scaling, supply chain and strategic growth.

As if all that weren’t enough, she also co-founded Redefining Business Intelligence, where she helps businesses integrate AI and data-driven decision-making to stay ahead in an evolving market.

In February, she launched the Midwest Women Entrepreneurs Collective, a 501(c) (3) nonprofit designed to support, connect and empower women entrepreneurs. The organization seeks to provide the kinds of resources and guidance that were in very short supply when Finn got her start.

“I don’t remember any coaching; there wasn’t really coaching available at that time,” she said. “You can talk to a lot of entrepreneurs, male or female, from the ’80s, ’90s or probably even the early 2000s and they’ll tell you the ecosystem wasn’t there. I was on an entrepreneurial journey for 30 years and I always felt like I was doing it myself.”

Finn said despite there being about 65,000 registered women-owned businesses in Nebraska and more than 99,000 women entrepreneurs in Iowa, there was no single platform dedicated to providing the resources, mentorship, financial education and advocacy that women entrepreneurs need to thrive. She hopes the new group will correct that and help women overcome the challenges both organic and manmade that they face in entrepreneurship.

“Today, if a woman needs a loan and a man needs a loan for $150,000, only 16% of women will get that loan for $150,000 or more, versus men who get it 84% of the time,” she said. “There are still institutional barriers there and I can name a gazillion of them. One of the reasons I was led to start this group here in Omaha is because women need coaching on that.

“I’ve also seen some positive change; banks are finally putting more and more women in positions of being loan officers, and women are oftentimes more comfortable working with other women on obtaining loans. So, we are connecting local women entrepreneurs with local women bankers.”

FABULOUS FACTS

ADVICE I WOULD GIVE TO MY 15-YEAR-OLD SELF: STOP WORRYING SO MUCH — LIFE HAS A BEAUTIFUL WAY OF WORKING ITSELF OUT. TRUST YOUR INSTINCTS AND DON’T BE AFRAID TO DREAM BIGGER THAN ANYONE TELLS YOU IS POSSIBLE.

ONE THING NOT MANY PEOPLE KNOW ABOUT ME: I WALKED THE CAMINO DE SANTIAGO IN SPAIN. IT TOOK ENDURANCE, PATIENCE AND THOUSANDS OF MEANINGFUL STEPS, LITERALLY AND METAPHORICALLY.

MY BIGGEST ACCOMPLISHMENT: FOUNDING THE MIDWEST WOMEN ENTREPRENEURS COLLECTIVE. IT’S NOT JUST ABOUT CREATING AN ORGANIZATION, IT’S ABOUT BUILDING A COMMUNITY WHERE WOMEN LIFT EACH OTHER UP, FIND THEIR VOICE, ACCESS RESOURCES AND SCALE BUSINESSES. THIS WORK COMBINES EVERYTHING I BELIEVE IN: EQUIITY, EMPOWERMENT AND ECONOMIC TRANSFORMATION FOR WOMEN!

MY FAVORITE GUILTY PLEASURE: UNWINDING WITH A GLASS OF WINE AND BINGE-WATCHING KOREAN DRAMAS. THERE’S SOMETHING CAPTIVATING ABOUT THE STORYTELLING, THE EMOTION, AND THEY USUALLY COMPLETE THE SERIES WITH AN ENDING IN FIVE OR SIX EPISODES.

SECRET TO “HAVING IT ALL”: WORRY LESS. ENJOY MORE. KNOW THAT BALANCE ISN’T ABOUT PERFECTION — IT’S ABOUT BEING PRESENT, PRIORITIZING JOY, AND GIVING YOURSELF GRACE ALONG THE WAY.

FAVORITE PLACE FOR A SPECIAL OCCASION DINNER IN OMAHA: J. GILBERT’S — IN THE BAR! I ENJOY THE WINDOWS AND LIVELY ATMOSPHERE. I ALWAYS BEGIN WITH THEIR SIGNATURE ESPRESSO MARTINI.

Finn’s face lights up as she talks about the women she gets to meet and work with these days and it is not a stretch to say she sees a little bit of herself in each one of them. She said opportunity is still ripe in Omaha to be successful as an entrepreneur, if one is prepared for what it takes to get there.

“I coach a lot of entrepreneurs now and honestly, I see such grit and determination in so many of them,” she said. “I think it’s something internal; you either have it or you don’t. Even so, being an entrepreneur is not an easy road for anyone, male, female, it doesn’t matter. It’s a hard road. My motto is, ‘Entrepreneurship is not a solo journey.’ It is much better if you’re with a community.”

ENTREPRENEURS’ organization

MEMBER spotlight:

Why did you start your business?

I started Goosmann Law Firm in 2009 because I saw a gap — leaders were making bold business moves without the legal support they truly needed. Coming from a family of entrepreneurs, I was raised to think big, work hard and create value. I didn’t just want to practice law — I wanted to build a firm that protects visionaries, helps them do big deals and powers their growth. I saw the opportunity and I went all in.

What are you most excited about for the future of your business?

I’m excited to keep scaling, both in talent and territory. We’re expanding in key markets, like Omaha, and every move we make is strategic. We’re investing in innovation, hiring top talent and doubling down on client experience. I’m also passionate about building future leaders within our firm, people who understand what it means to make make every day “worth it” and lead with grit and vision.

Where do you get your entrepreneurial drive?

My drive comes from my roots. I grew up watching my dad farm with strategy and courage — he’d literally

put on his “big deal boots” before making bold moves. That mindset stuck with me. I also feed off the energy of my clients — CEOs, founders and executives who are doing big things. Their momentum fuels mine.

What advice do you have for aspiring entrepreneurs?

Ask yourself, “Is this worth it?” in money, time, energy and sacrifice. If it is, go all in. Be prepared. Build your foundation. Know your numbers. Deliver more than expected. Surround yourself with people who elevate you. There’s no shortcut but if you lead with value, you’ll build something truly lasting.

How have you benefited from being a member of EO?

EO has given me a powerful community of like-minded leaders who challenge and support each other. It’s a place to learn, grow and share wins and struggles openly. I’ve gained incredible insights and relationships that have made me a better CEO and a stronger leader. It’s helped me keep growing — and that’s everything.

Macro Investing Struggles in a Secular World

At HFS, we believe the market is not the economy, and the economy is not the market. Sometimes they can rhyme, but even that’s been occurring less frequently. Just look at macro investing. Many have blamed the struggles of this popular style on the Fed. Such investors complained that whenever the market would experience any turbulence, the Fed would come to the rescue. This suppressed volatility and interest rates, which were supposedly necessary ingredients for successful macro investing. Many thought that when these conditions returned, macro investing would become “great again”.

Everything that macro investors could have asked for has been in place since 2022. The Fed hiked interest rates at the fastest pace in over 40 years. Inflation surged to the highest since the 1980s. The Fed ended its bond-buying program, Quantitative Easing (QE). Volatility returned with gusto as the stock market endured two bear markets in just four years, and bonds experienced the worst drawdown in its history. Despite such pristine conditions, the performance of macro funds has only gotten worse.

Interestingly, classic value investing has been experiencing similar problems over the same period. We don’t think it’s a coincidence. We believe that the two ail from the same phenomenon — the rise of the digital economy. This marches to the beat of a secular, not cyclical, drum. Digital firms are taking market share from traditional ones and intentionally delaying profits to achieve unprecedented scale. Traditional investment approaches are being exposed. Simplistic investment theses like mean reversion and historical pattern matching are failing. Spotting low valuation multiples or making recession calls using single factor “rules” are leading investors astray.

The digital economy is real. It has commerce, advertising and entertainment. Now with artificial intelligence, it is adding digital workers. It’s not a fad. Until such investment approaches are modernized to incorporate this, HFS believes they will continue to struggle. While many market strategists are focused on stale macro data to anticipate the next Fed move, we’re laser focused on the evolution of the digital economy and its future winners.

TAMIKA MEASE, NORTH OMAHA COMMUNITY PARTNERSHIP

Midlands Leaders is a weekly section showcasing individuals who are making an impact in the community through their professional and volunteer endeavors. To nominate someone for this section, email news@mbj.com with the individual’s name, position, company and email.

TAMIKA

Bio:

Born and raised in north Omaha, Tamika Mease holds an associate degree in business management from Tidewater Community College in Norfolk, Va., and a degree in nonprofit management from Metropolitan Community College in Omaha. Before transitioning into the nonprofit sector, she served as a corporate trainer and mentor with Signature Performance in Omaha, where she honed her leadership, coaching and organizational development skills.

She has served on several nonprofit and civic boards, including Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation, Alzheimer’s Association, Urban League of Nebraska Young Professionals and Greater Omaha Chamber, where she was a founding board member of the Commitment to Opportunity, Diversity and Equity initiative.

Mease launched her organization in 2019 under the name Woman to Woman Organization, rebranding it North Omaha Community Partnership in 2021 to reflect its expanded mission and impact. Under her leadership, NOCP has become a trusted community hub for advocacy, family support and youth empowerment. What led you to the nonprofit field?

My journey to the nonprofit field was deeply personal. Growing up in North Omaha I experienced many of the same challenges our youth face today like poverty, violence and limited access to opportunity. As I healed and began to understand my own worth, I felt called to give back. I founded North Omaha Community Partnership based on a vision God gave me to meet people where they are, especially our youth, and walk with them through transformation. It’s more than a job, it’s my ministry. What do you enjoy most about your work through NOCP?

What I enjoy most is watching real transformation take place in our community. Whether it’s a youth leaving behind gang involvement, a family regaining stability through wraparound services, or a mother feeling empowered because she finally has access to diapers for her baby, those moments remind me that the work is worth it.

What steps do you take to keep your life in balance?

Balance is something I’m always working toward, especially when your heart is tied so closely to your work. I set aside time for prayer, fellowship and reflection, which keeps me grounded. I also make

intentional space for rest, spending time with my family and unplugging from work when possible. I had to learn that self-care isn’t selfish, it’s necessary so I can pour into others from a full cup. What did your career in the corporate world teach you that has also been essential in the nonprofit world?

My time in the corporate world taught me the importance of systems, accountability and results. I learned how to manage and train teams, oversee budgets and structure programs efficiently which are skills that I found to be essential in nonprofit leadership. I think the greatest thing I learned in corporate management was how to communicate across different audiences and advocate for value
