Accountability with Care
The Business Challenge
Our client is an international healthcare company with over 33 million customers worldwide. The UKI and Global insurance businesses were entering a new and exciting phase towards maturity as an insurer which required them to develop the controls, disciplines, risk management structures and governance that you would expect from a large insurance provider. At the same time, they wanted to maintain their strength as a caring and customer-centric organization. Walking the Talk was engaged to assess progress to date and to work with the organization to culturally shift them to the next level.
Bottom Line
As a result of our work people were more confident to act, and feel more empowered, informed and have deeper ownership of their part in achieving results for the organization.
