Canadian property and casualty insurance brokers appreciate how diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) can help create more equitable and harmonious workplaces — and foster deeper client interactions. But there may be more than one way to get there. While some brokers assert hiring exclusively for merit will organically produce diverse workplaces, others advocate crafted programs to ensure employees understand how their actions might impact fellow team members, and see to it that everyone feels welcome and valued.

In this webinar replay, panellists discuss specific actions they’ve taken to build inclusive workplaces, spell out the benefits of those actions, and provide practical advice for tactics brokers can use to improve the employee experience and drive workplace performance through DEI at their own firms.
