CII Inclusion in Insurance Roadshow
Due to low numbers, this event has been cancelled, apologises for any inconvenience.
The Insurance Institute of Newcastle Upon Tyne is working with the CII and the Personal Finance Society to bring together experts to explore how our markets can embrace inclusion and diversity.
Business leaders are putting more focus on diversity and inclusion in the workplace as the tangible benefits begin to be quantified; enhanced customer satisfaction (79%) and enhanced business performance (85%) are key reasons why we all should now be taking diversity seriously according to recent research from PWC.
As well as improving our understanding of a range of inclusion and diversity initiatives, attendance at this event offers a great opportunity for you to network and qualify for up to 1.5 hours of CPD (should you consider it relevant to your professional development needs).
