Abstract

Zurich Insurance was undergoing organizational change after implementing five new people practices focused on manager development, diversity and inclusion, job model and data analytics, recruitment, and talent pipeline. The case “Zurich Insurance: Fostering Key People Management Practices” (HBS No. 417-035) provides background of the company and an outline of each people practice. This case takes a closer look at succession planning at the top of the organization, including a focus on leadership competencies and development.
