Virtual roundtables for strategy leaders - The mutual difference

As part of its virtual member services offering, ICMIF regularly hosts virtual roundtable discussions for strategic leaders at member companies. These roundtables provide a great opportunity for leaders to share and learn from the diverse competencies and experiences of other ICMIF members through discussions around a common strategic issue. More than 260 senior executives and CEOs have participated in virtual roundtables hosted since 2020, representing more than 100 member organisations in 35 countries.

This topic on the mutual difference looks at how mutual/cooperative insurers leverage the mutual value proposition to create a positive differentiator and gain a competitive advantage. This includes discussions around how to drive growth through a purpose-driven strategy; communicating the benefits of mutuality to members/customers; and creating value by embedding sustainability and ESG factors in order to differentiate as responsible businesses.

• How are the values and purpose of mutuality embedded in your business strategy and organisational culture?
• How does the cooperative/mutual value proposition give your organisation a competitive advantage over other insurers in your market?
• How do you communicate and market the “mutual/cooperative difference” in a way that it resonates with members/customers?
• Does your organisation differentiate itself as a sustainable or socially-responsible business? If so, how are these ESG practices linked to your mutuality?

The next roundtable sessions on this topic will take place in early 2024 (exact dates/timings will be confirmed and communicated to members shortly).

These virtual roundtables are aimed at C-suite executives, heads of strategy and strategic leaders, but are also open to any CEO or senior leader from ICMIF member organisations.

Each roundtable lasts two hours and will be hosted on a virtual platform. We hope to host a number of these strategic roundtables, so that the number of member companies involved in each roundtable will be limited to ensure maximum value for each participant and diversity in each discussion. For this reason, a maximum of two participants from each member company will be able to join each of the various discussions.
