Product Description
by Carly Burnham (Author), Tony Canas (Author)
For several years, the Property Casualty Insurance Industry has been talking about a "looming talent crisis". Today, crisis is no longer looming, it's very much here. The average age of an insurance professional is around 60 years old and the number of insurance pros over 55 has increased by 74% in the decade before 2012. Making things worse insurance has a bad reputation in society and only 4% of Millennials report having an interest in working in the industry. In the last few years we have been hiring thousands of Millennials, but we haven't done a good job of engaging them and retaining them in the industry. This is your guidebook to not only keep your Millennials but grow them and help them fall in love with the insurance industry. Carly and Tony have been immersed in the topic for over five years, and since 2015 have been running the popular insurance blog InsNerds.com. Tony has also been speaking at industry conferences about how to engage and retain Millennials in the industry. His session has been described as fascinating, interesting and hilarious by audiences all over the country. But an hour long presentation doesn't allow enough depth to really dig into the problem. This deeply researched book is our answer to this perplexing problem. Written in the easy to read style of InsNerds while also being informative, engaging and full of answers to the most perplexing questions and concerns about growing the next generation of insurance superstars. Finally, here is the answer to the most important insurance question of our time: Where will our future leaders come from?
