A Manitowoc man recently concluded a long and successful career in the banking industry.
Bill Censky, recently stepped down from his position as Investors Community Bank’s Chairman of the Board, wrapping up a career in the financial sector that began in 1969 at Manitowoc County Bank. Censky’s late father, Gerald, was also a banker and helped start that institution. The co-founder & former president, CEO & Board Chairman of Investors Community Bank has “likely seen faster technological change during his 50-year career than any other time in history.”
From manually writing checks & rendering accounts, to being one of the first bankers in the state to use a personal computer (a 1982 Apple) to working virtually during the global pandemic, Censky has seen it all. Bill, along with several colleagues Mark Binversie, Wayne Mueller & Tim Schneider took a chance, built on the entrepreneurial spirit they each possessed, and started Investors Community Bank 23 years ago in the old Schuette Department Store building. It has since grown by leaps and bounds.
As for what the future holds, Bill Censky looks forward to spending more time with his family: wife of 45-years Nancy, adult children Phillip and Laura, and their two grandchildren. He also hopes to spend more time traveling and on the golf course.
