Out of more than 800 female members of the insurance industry, only 26% feel that the industry is embracing more women in leadership positions compared to other businesses and professional service industries, according to an Insurance Charitable Foundation (IICF) survey.
Conducted at the recent Women in Insurance Series held in Chicago, Los Angeles, New York City and Dallas, IICF's survey consisted of questions to uncover trends in the industry's gender diversity initiatives
“Though we as an industry have made significant strides in creating a positive and equal work environment, there is still more we can do,” said Joe Tocco, CEO, North America P&C for XL Group. “Collectively, the industry has been successful in continuing an important dialogue about gender diversity and the tangible, real-world benefits it provides for companies and their employees. These conferences have created a forum for both women and men to discuss issues they see in their everyday lives and work together to find solutions for themselves and the next generation of insurance professionals.”
