Building Stronger Hearts And Minds

“Learn, Adapt, Grow.”

Our Field Marketing managers are literally the “faces” of California Casualty, visiting schools, fire and police stations, hospitals and healthcare facilities, as well as attending group benefit fairs, orientations and charitable events. Year after year, they strive to improve on their skill sets to provide the best service for you and the groups to which you belong. Learn Adapt Grow

We believe strongly in investing time and effort to help them succeed. To facilitate this effort, our Field team attends a yearly Partner Relations Summer Meeting. The goal of the three-day gathering is to discuss best practices, share success stories, and learn new ideas. This year’s theme was “Learn, Adapt, Grow.”

Some of this year’s highlights included discussions about better time management, the importance of self-care, adapting to challenges in the insurance industry, and enhancing relationships with the groups/vocations that we serve. Our Field representatives came away with new valuable lessons on providing you with exceptional service.

Important breakout sessions included:

• Understanding insurance fraud and how California Casualty protects customers from being victims of fraudulent activities
• Products and services that differentiate California Casualty from other insurance companies
• A refresher of the many tools California Casualty provides for informing group members about their auto and home insurance benefits and how to market them
• The importance of helping individuals to strengthen our partnerships
• A wellness presentation on simple tactics to stay healthy and how to be the best for others
• A recognition ceremony and award presentation for the high achievers of our Partner Relations team

“I am amazed at how hard every one of our team works each day for our affinity groups and their members,” said Midwest Field Team Manager, Rebecca (Becky) Stumpf. “Sharing stories, having a better understanding of our products, and fulfilling our promises provides us better tools to serve and strengthen those partnerships.”

Amy Grosso, Assistant Vice President of Field Relations for the East, noted the value of the meeting to help build team unity and re-energize our Partner Relations team. “This is the one time, each year, that remote-based employees get together to build rapport, introduce new members, and recognize our annual award recipients. They leave this meeting with new ideas and energy that will enhance their relationships in the field and improve productivity,” she said.

Katelyn Hoffman, Field Marketing Manager for Missouri, said, “The amount of time and thought put into this meeting was amazing and truly appreciated. I am proud to be part of such an impressive organization – not only because the company is great, but I love our mission of helping those in public service create better lives for themselves and their families.”

California Field Marketing Manager Chris Renn and Washington Senior Field Marketing Manager Michelle Hawkins both agreed that the time spent at the meeting was not only valuable for them personally, but will enhance their efforts working with you. “I have a lot more tools to provide fresher and more specific information at the right time to better serve my groups,” said Chris.

Michelle added, “I always come back from the meeting with a huge to-do list. I am inspired by my peers to push myself a little more here and there to benefit our valued partners.”
