MAPFRE and the International Institute for Management Development (IMD) have signed a significant global collaboration agreement to promote training initiatives, talent development, and the awareness of insurance’s role in society. This agreement builds on years of cooperative efforts between the two organizations, focused on strengthening educational opportunities in the insurance industry.
Breaking boundaries: New ways of working in financial institutions
Formalizing the agreement: A commitment to sustainable leadership
The partnership was formalized at MAPFRE’s Corporate University, where MAPFRE’s Corporate Director of People and Organization, Juan Carlos Rondeau, and IMD President David Bach highlighted the value of this alliance. David Bach noted, “We are pleased to be collaborating with MAPFRE to grow a future-ready workforce with inspiring and purposeful leaders who will take the company forward into a sustainable future.”
Enhancing skills for a rapidly evolving insurance landscape
Juan Carlos Rondeau emphasized that ongoing training is central to MAPFRE’s identity, particularly in today’s rapidly evolving business landscape. “Training has always been and will always be one of MAPFRE’s hallmarks. It is essential to continually enhance the skills and knowledge of our professionals to offer the best service to our clients,” Rondeau said.
MAPFRE’s universities plan: Fostering collaboration and innovation
The initiative is part of MAPFRE’s Universities Plan, which fosters university and corporate collaboration, talent development, and innovation. The agreement includes specialized executive programs created by IMD for MAPFRE employees and access to Fundación MAPFRE’s extensive insurance and finance resources.
IMD’s global reach and impact on executive education
IMD, a globally recognized business school based in Lausanne, Switzerland, offers executive education to over 28,000 leaders annually across more than 120 countries. This collaboration with MAPFRE will drive projects in various countries where MAPFRE operates, supporting the development of an insurance culture, advancing industry research, and nurturing future leaders in insurance and beyond.
