Insurers would be better off developing leaders who understand multiple disciplines within the industry, not just their own particular niche, according to executives at the National Association of Mutual Insurance Companies annual conference.
One advocate of a more holistic approach to talent development is Darwin Copeman, president and CEO of the Cameron Insurance Companies. He said in an interview that he tries to develop multidisciplinary experts by exposing current and potential leaders to different aspects of his business, regardless of where they work within the organization.
Mr. Copeman, who is incoming chair of NAMIC's property-casualty conference, said he establishes a philosophy of: “We're all in this together; we all build the plan together; we all own the plan together.”
