Aon announced its plan to bring the benefits of its Aon United growth strategy closer to clients around the world.

It will accelerate and expand its Delivering Aon United program to set a common standard for client leadership and create client service hubs, powered by its Aon Business Services platform, that will support back and middle-office services across the firm. To support more effective Aon United operations, the firm will also establish a common model for its shared services, including marketing & communications, human resources, legal and finance.

The Delivering Aon United program leverages best practices from around the world to create a common client leadership strategy that will further increase collaboration across solution lines, improve sales effectiveness, strengthen segmentation strategy and make it easier for colleagues to deliver maximum value to clients.

"The actions we are announcing today to accelerate Aon United are a direct reflection of the continued momentum we are seeing with clients, our ability to deliver industry-leading innovation and our continued progress towards delivering on our goal of mid-single digit organic growth or greater over the long-term," Greg Case, Aon's CEO, said in a statement.
