Two of our employee-led resource groups (ERGs), the Markel Veterans Network (MVN) and Black Engagement at Markel (BEAM), partnered to host the third gathering in our Richmond Summer Event Series. Employees enjoyed conversations in the cooler weather while eating lunch from various local food trucks. When asked about the importance of ERGs, BEAM’s Growth and Development Lead Syshelle Chantilou said, “ERGs are important to Markel because they give the associated a sense of belonging. They also foster things such as leadership and of course community outreach and involvement.” MVN Support Lead Ron Slone also shared, “With the ERGs, the big thing that I always preach is that it’s not about what we get from Markel, it’s about what we bring to Markel.” Learn more about our employee-led resource groups here: https://lnkd.in/eRhDJtzh. #WeAreMarkel

“We encourage our managers to be brave: sometimes it’s the easy option to do what you’ve always done, or to fish in pools you’ve always fished in, but you need to be innovative, be creative,” said Sue Davies. As part of Intelligent Insurer's Talent Month series, Sue participated in a panel with other human resources leaders in the insurance industry. This third report turns to the topic of diversity and inclusion. Sue highlighted the success of Markel’s staff initiatives and inclusion networks in engaging with potential talent. “Through our inclusion network, we reach out to different colleges and universities,” she said. “Role modeling, sponsoring, and mentoring are all essential so that people can see a meaningful career ahead of them.” Sue also mentioned our continued partnership with the Dive In Festival. “We’ve been a global partner of the festival for a long time and it’s great in terms of getting people to open their eyes, so we try to leverage that across our employee base for education opportunities,” she noted.

The UTP is a premier, entry-level program designed to prepare our employees to be successful underwriters and future leaders through on-the-job, technical and professional skills training.
