HR WORKING GROUP

About the Working Group

Recruitment, retention, rewards, leadership development and succession planning top the list of human resources concerns that Council member firms grapple with on a daily basis. Other issues such as performance management, training, employee relations, M&A, communication and compliance create additional challenges.

Recognizing that these and other issues are widely shared, in 2011 The Council launched the Human Resources in Insurance Working Group – to give HR professionals and those with HR responsibilities a non-competitive venue to meet, exchange ideas, learn from and connect with other member firm HR practitioners. Networking, discussion, education, training, and presentations by thought leaders will support the identified goals of the group.

These programs are customized exclusively for The Council members and offer peer-to-peer networking opportunities.

 

Upcoming Event

We’re excited to announce that Kira Kimball, Chief Diversity, Equity & Inclusion Officer at Marsh McLennan and chair of The Council’s DEI Advisory Board, will be joining us for our June HRWG Virtual Meeting to lead a collaborative discussion on her DEI journey and practices within her firm. Kira will share insights on what’s worked, what’s evolved, and how her team is responding to the shifting DEI landscape. This will also be a unique opportunity for all of us to engage in a candid conversation—where we can discuss the challenges we’re currently facing in DEI, exchange ideas, and reflect on how our strategies may need to adapt moving forward.

We encourage you to come prepared to share your experiences, questions, and lessons learned. This dialogue is meant to be interactive, practical, and supportive grounded in real-time challenges and forward-thinking approaches.

Those interested in attending can reach out to Beth McMahon.

Please Note: For scheduling reasons, the already scheduled June 18th Virtual HRWG session will be replaced by this virtual session that will now be held on Friday, June 13th at 11am EST.
