Risk And Insurance Manager job outlook: Expert opinions
Our panel of risk and insurance manager experts
What general advice would you give to a Risk And Insurance Manager?
Jill Bisco Ph.D., CIC, CRM, CPRM, CSRM: I already mentioned - continue learning and, in the process, gain certifications or designations. Whether one continues their university education through a master's or doctorate, or gains designations such as the CPCU or CIC, the continuation of learning will show current and prospective employers a commitment and dedication to learn about the industry.
Be engaged! Get involved! Doing the bare minimum, or sometimes just doing your job, is no longer sufficient, although I'm not sure it ever was. Employees that get connected with organizations such as the Risk and Insurance Management Society (RIMS) or a Gamma Iota Sigma alumni chapter - stand out. Don't be afraid to engage in groups within or outside of your organization. Be different, be engaged, stand out!
What will help Risk And Insurance Managers increase their earning potential?
Jill Bisco Ph.D., CIC, CRM, CPRM, CSRM: Take the time to continue to learn. Our industry is one that keeps evolving and changing and this allows it to stay dynamic and exciting, but also requires a continued commitment to education. Learn from coworkers and mentors. Learn through designation courses and continuing education. Just keep learning. As I was told early in my career, "always prepare yourself for the next promotion or the next opportunity that comes your way." Preparedness includes staying current with what is going on in the industry.
