We know from the 2026 Business Benchmarks that Minnesota ranks 39th in job growth. While state-level factors continue to prohibit job growth, employers like Traci Tapani of Wyoming Machine Inc. are among those trying to reverse that trend by offering high wages, tailored benefits and a work/life balance for their valued employees. Hear from Traci in this segment from Minnesota Live: kstp.com/special-covera…
