Who says the future of insurance doesn’t look good?
While the industry may have some struggles in attracting new talent, those that are drawn to the sector certainly bring a lot to the table – as the Chartered Insurance Institute’s New Generation Group 2018 proves.
The talent programme is designed to develop future leaders by tasking participants with challenging projects or initiatives that could make a difference to the profession and help build public trust. The projects typically take a year to complete with Keith Richards, managing director of engagement at
CII, outlining that a recent claims faculty group project scooped several awards for its claims handling guide for the Home Office.
“The programme has been designed to give the participants a broader understanding of the insurance sector and provide them with the opportunity to learn key management and project skills, develop a wide network across the market and influence change for the good of the public,” he said. “Every year we are really impressed by the quality of the candidates on this programme and the creative solutions that they develop.”
