GOLDEN CELEBRATION Herbein + Company, Inc. Notches 50 Years and Looks to the Future

By Jennifer Goldsmith Cerra, Communications Director, Herbein + Company, Inc.

In 1972, Herbein opened its doors with a clear purpose: Helping our team, our clients and our community succeed with confidence. Now, with 50 years of history behind us, that same entrepreneurial spirit drives Herbein forward, whether we are providing new services, welcoming new team members, expanding our value proposition or reimagining the role we play for our clients – all while maintaining our independence and dedication to the communities we serve. 2022 is an important year for our team, and we are celebrating our 50th anniversary in several ways. Team members are outlining their favorite Herbein moments on our new intranet – and we recently published a special book that examines our shared experience as members of the team. We’re sharing key moments in our history on social media, and in October, our firm will come together for a three-day firm retreat. Outside Herbein, we’re looking forward to hosting several client events to express our gratitude for the trust they place in us – and we will accelerate our community support contributions throughout the year. Finally, we are introducing new brand imagery and website to help us demonstrate our strength and stability.

Herbein’s future is full of possibilities. One key way we’re adapting for long-term success is by bringing new teams into the Herbein family, as we did in 2021 with four combinations. These exciting mergers included three CPA firms and our acquisition of Mosteller + Associates, the region’s most comprehensive Human Resources (HR) solutions partner – our clients told us that HR was a big concern, and this is already a huge success. Our teams are enhancing collaboration as we endeavor to provide a seamless experience for our clients.

Herbein leadership understands that work needs to hold greater meaning today than ever before.

“In the third year of the pandemic, the war for talent is on, with more people reconsidering where they work and how they work. We’re committed to providing our team with a renewed and revised sense of purpose in their work, social and interpersonal connections with colleagues and managers, and a sense of shared identity,” said Melissa Rebholz, Herbein director of human relations.

Herbein Managing Partner Dave Stonesifer agrees that the HR team plays a critical role in creating that shared identity.

“Our HR team has been outstanding in its conversations with our people, as we strive to understand what keeps them here with us. And as a result, we continue to do exceptionally well in maintaining team continuity, which in turn, allows us to maintain high client service,” he said.

Staying successful requires us to operate on two tracks: build upon our traditional business and seek opportunity in new services and geographies while remaining true to our roots. We continue to make progress on diversity and inclusion, and we have taken meaningful action to support our commitments through Horizon, our firmwide Diversity Equity and Inclusion (DEI) initiative. Our incredibly talented team members have done so much to set our firm up for continued success. In this anniversary year, Herbein continues to create even greater value for our team, our clients and our community.

Thank you to our clients, hardworking employees and dedicated staff for helping us be a Greater Reading Top 50 Business again this year and for our continued success!!!! Carl Rudolph Owner/General Manager
