I spoke last month at the Arizona Insurance Claims Association, the premier (albeit only!) organization in Arizona dedicated to the property/casualty claims adjuster. When I last spoke there, I talked about the brain drain carriers and agents are experiencing and how Gen Xs and Ys could leverage this exodus to their advantage, but I wasn't sure diversity would go over too well. One of my blog readers asked how it went. Frankly, I was surprised by how interested the audience was in this topic.
To remain competitive in today's rapidly changing and global market, the insurance industry, like any other industry, must have top intellectual talent. And that talent lies in diversity, not just of race and gender, but in diversity of thought.
Studies have repeatedly shown that diverse groups perform better and that a certain amount of healthy conflict must occur before groups arrive at superior decisions. And because the insurance industry is becoming more and more team-driven, the need for training in areas of diversity becomes even more critical. Studies repeatedly show that diverse teams make better decisions.
If your organization would like to explore diversity or inter-generational issues, I present in these critical areas. As an instructor for Insurance Journal's Academy, you are invited to take part in my upcoming seminars or purchase my earlier seminars for your organization.
The link to the Academy is here.
Have a great, productive week.

Professional liability insurance gives business owners the protection they need against potential financial responsibilities arising from daily activities, such as filling out and filing paperwork or acting in a fiduciary capacity.
