We are sharing a very exciting episode on The Leadership In Insurance Podcast today. We talk about innovation a lot on this podcast, often to start up and scale up insurtechs, but Kennedys brings a new perspective to insurtech innovation.In this episode I am joined by Richard West who wears many hats; Partner at Kennedys, a leading global insurance legal service provider. Richard is the Global Head of Liability Defence and most importantly for this conversation, Head of Client Innovation.Our conversation covers all things innovation in law - Why innovate in law? What does that look like, both internally and externally? And what role does Kennedys play within the insurance innovation ecosystem?🎙 We look at the need for differentiation and client innovation - the launch of Kennedys IQ in 2022, identifying emerging risks and the importance of providing insights and more certainty for the insurance industry🎙 We discuss Richard idea of helping clients use lawyers less - Lawyers are a distress purchase, used at moments of crisis - how can we evolve this?🎙 We talk about the resistance to the idea to become less dependent on lawyers - Are you innovating yourself out of revenue? Will innovation engineer human lawyers out of the process?🎙 We delve into AI - to what extent is it an opportunity or a threat? Will this force the legal profession to evolve again?🎙 We examine the link between lawyers and trust, and how this will evolve with AI - people still want humans - but will start to see less reliance on humans for advice? When will society tolerate a robot performing surgery?🎙 Finally we look at what’s on the horizon for Richard and his team; scaling the IQ offering, smart projects launch and more!

Last week, at ITC DIA’s Barcelona conference I was lucky enough to share the stage with some of the industry’s most renowned thought leaders to host a conversation around the future of the workforce and how #Innovation, #Diversity & the war for #Talent go hand in hand.🎙 Pamela Thomson-Hall - CEO International and Executive Officer, WTW🎙 Alan De Bruyne, Inclusion & Diversity Strategist, Diversito🎙 Marguerite Soeteman-Reijnen, Former Chairman & Global Board Member, AonIt was a truly inspiring conversation with so many great takeaways, so if you weren’t able to join us for the live conversation last week, you can catch the recording on the pod this week(Or if you loved it so much you’d like to listen again!)Some of the many take aways…👉 "Don't forget the why": The underlying purpose of diversity is not just about ticking boxes; it's about harnessing the power of varied viewpoints to drive better decision-making and foster innovation. When diverse voices are heard, organisations thrive.👉 "DE&I is hard work but pays out": Building a truly inclusive culture requires commitment and effort. However, the return on investment in terms of improved business outcomes and employee engagement is well worth it. It's a win-win situation for everyone involved.👉 "DE&I is a leadership task": Diverse and inclusive organizations start with strong leadership. Leaders must actively champion diversity, ensuring there is a diverse pool of talent behind them. By doing so, they set the stage for success and enable the full potential of their teams.👉 "Have your eyes open to see others and recognize them": Building a diverse and inclusive workplace requires an intentional effort to acknowledge and value the contributions of others. By embracing different perspectives, we foster an environment where everyone feels seen, heard, and appreciated.👉 "Representation matters": People tend to stay with a company when they see others who share their backgrounds and experiences. By promoting diversity and inclusion, we create a sense of belonging that attracts and retains top talent, fueling long-term success.Thank you to The ITC DIA Europe Community for having us - proud to be a media partner for such a great event and glad to be sharing the conversation further Hosted on Acast.
