At the recent America’s Claims Event conference in Austin, Texas, I had an opportunity to deliver a presentation that focused on leadership concepts for leaders – how we as leaders have to inspire improvement in our staffs.

While helping the Liberty Mutual Commercial Division role out their negotiations skills training program, I witnessed a great example of leading by inspiration.

Most top executives are content with letting the training department handle the day to day training classes, but I watched in great amazement as Glenn Shapiro, their chief claims officer, got personally involved in inspiring his entire claims force.
