This past month, four team members visited Atlanta, GA to participate in Crawford’s initiative, the Emerging Leaders program. This program not only supports our employees’ career progression but also represents an investment in their professional development. It underscores the commitment of our executive team to nurture talent and empower the next generation of leaders across our organization.
"I trust that the program's impact extends far beyond the individual participants, contributing to a culture of growth, collaboration, and innovation within the organization,"
stated Said Aomari, central intake and administration manager.
"Our program has brought us together with leaders from all corners of the globe. We've found that we share similar wins and losses, successes and challenges, regardless of where we stand in the business,"
expressed Sarah Roach, TPA Walmart claims manager.
Our Canadian team members had a valuable learning experience during their time in Atlanta.
They gained insights into leadership styles and effectiveness through the Hogan Leadership Assessment, placing a dedicated focus on understanding Crawford's financial statements and the five building blocks of our business success. Engaging with experts, both internally and externally, enriched their learning. Team-building activities, dinners, and a visit to the Atlanta Zoo provided camaraderie and insights into diverse leadership. Collaborative business challenges helped form lasting relationships and emphasized important business acumen and communication skills, enabling our team to lead with clarity.
"The best part for me was the opportunity to connect with leaders from all lines of business worldwide. Collaborating with this diverse group was a fantastic experience. We found common ground in our wins, losses, successes, and challenges, regardless of our roles,"
shared Sarah Roach.
The Emerging Leaders program equips our team with knowledge, skills and connections, renewing our energy and commitment to quality, expertise and digital excellence. It's a journey that prepares out team to embrace the future and contribute to Crawford’s ongoing success.
"All in all, I returned from the program with a renewed sense of energy and engagement as a leader. It truly reinforced the 'One Crawford' feeling,"
Sarah Roach concluded.
Emerging Leaders program is just one example of the many opportunities we offer to nurture and grow the potential of our employees. For our existing employees, this means an ongoing journey of growth and development. It means access to programs, like the Emerging Leaders program, which can expand their horizons and empower them with new skills and perspectives. It means a workplace culture where their ambitions are recognized and encouraged, and where they can continually evolve in their roles.
