Our CEO class was honored to hear from Lisa Cash - COUNTRY Financial as she gave us an in-depth look at the insurance industry. She walked us through everything she does in her role and explained the various aspects of insurance Country Financial covers.
Did you know that Country Financial is the #1 insurer in Illinois, and deer claims are among the largest claims insurance agents handle!? Lisa even taught us the proper steps for filing a claim after an accident - practical knowledge we'll all use someday - hopefully not too soon!
Some of our key takeaways included:
Time management is everything. Lisa emphasized that we all have time - it's about how we use it. The solution? Creating schedules and planning out your days so you know exactly what you're tackling. Our students are already putting this into practice by making to-do lists for their class business.
Your personality is an asset, not a limitation. There's no single "right" personality for success in business. Different personalities bring different strengths to the table, and that diversity makes businesses stronger.
Our students left with both practical insurance knowledge and important life lessons about managing time and embracing who they are as future professionals.
Thank you, Lisa Cash - Country Financial, for serving on our CEO board and investing in our program and in our young entrepreneurs! (And for the COUNTRY swag!)
