There's a real and palpable talent crisis in the industry that is causing tension between the old guard of the insurance industry and millennials, the fastest-growing consumer base and workforce. If the recent tech industry boom has taught us anything, it's that young people will work long hours at high-pressure...
By paying attention to the needs of the millennial worker and employing some of these strategies, your company can begin to create a symbiotic relationship between insurance veterans and new talent.
When you think of the insurance industry, the words cool or sexy don't come to mind. And this perception has hindered many young, talented workers from seeing the value of insurance as a career path.
When clients must repair and rebuild their homes, the claims process will make or break their relationships with insurers.
