Women in Reinsurance Event Highlights Leadership Dialogue on Gender Equality and Industry Progress

Programming example

Last week I had the privilege of speaking at the Women in Reinsurance event — and I left the room both inspired and challenged in the best possible way.I spoke about my experience working alongside the incredible women in our industry, and about the responsibility leaders have to build teams and environments that genuinely support women as they grow their careers — particularly in regions and parts of the market where we know progress on gender equality still lags behind where it should be.I’m enormously proud of being a part of Aon Re LatAm, where we have more female CEOs than male, and of Aon more broadly, where over 50% of our ExCo is female. These outcomes don’t happen by accident — they come from intention, sponsorship, and a willingness to challenge old norms.The Q&A that followed was especially powerful. We had open, honest dialogue about some of the tougher issues our industry still needs to confront.Speaking in front of so many women was, I’ll admit, a little intimidating — and it gave me a small glimpse into what many women in our industry experience far too often, particularly in our region. That perspective stuck with me.I’m fortunate to work every day with inspiring women who challenge me, support me, and make me a better leader. Doing my small part to promote these conversations comes naturally because of them.Thank you to the Women in Reinsurance committee for the invitation, to my Aon colleagues for their support on the day, and to the many women who continue to move our industry forward — with talent, resilience and leadership.hashtag#WomenInReinsurance hashtag#Inclusion hashtag#Leadership hashtag#BetterTogether hashtag#AonMaria Jose Cordovez Catarina Malafaia, ARe Mercedes Betancourt GonzalezLunaEillen Toledo RomarisJimena Salgado
