Butler Rubin Hosts Annual "Women in Reinsurance" Event in New York City

CHICAGO, August 12, 2010 The Chicago-based law firm Butler Rubin Saltarelli & Boyd LLP will host its annual Women in ReinsuranceTM (WIR) event on November 4th featuring generational expert Dr. Jan Ferri-Reed.  Founded by Butler Rubin, WIR regularly sponsors events of interest to professional women in the reinsurance industry and fosters networking and information sharing.

 

Butler Rubin partners Julie Rodriguez Aldort, Randi Ellias, Catherine Isely, Amy Kelley and Teresa Snider will host the WIR program at the Michelangelo Hotel in New York.

 

At the 2010 WIR event, Dr. Ferri-Reed will present "The Four-Way Intersection:  Effectively Communicating Across the Generations."  It has been suggested that each generation is shaped by the events in force during its adolescent years:  Silent Generation” (born 1925 to 1945); “Baby Boomer” generation (born 1945 - 1964); “Generation X” (born 1965-1979); and “Millennial Generation” (born 1980-1999).  With four generations currently in the workplace, the issues of understanding and working well with each other grow more challenging.  Dr. Ferri-Reed explains how to identify trends and preferences for each generation, bridge the gaps, and communicate with, coach, and mentor colleagues effectively.  

 

Dr. Ferri-Reed is the author of the Amazon best-selling book, “Keeping the Millennials: Why Companies are Losing Billions in Turnover to This Generation and What To Do About it.”  In addition, she is a seasoned consultant and President of KEYGroup, an organization devoted to creating competitive workplaces and providing leadership training, executive coaching, and employee assessment solutions.
