Jeff Diana
Chief HR Officer
Safeco

Today's business dilemmas seems universal: Is your company moving from a profitability focus driven by cost cutting to one enabled by customer focus and revenue growth? Facing a tough industry and an economic environment with a business mandate to outperform to drive shareholder value? These business conditions and the need to change the mindset of the workforce can be daunting.

At Safeco, we are in the midst of the largest shift in business strategy and culture change in our 90 year history.

Our CEO Paula Reynolds has brought a new agenda of customer focused growth and HR is at the forefront.

The New Safeco Agenda promises indispensability for our customers and our agents.

Our challenge is to build a sustainable people strategy that will enable this transformation and drive our competitive positioning in the marketplace. It has been a busy 12 months focused on redesigning our infrastructure to support this growth agenda. Come hear about our challenges and our many changes.

We encourage you to join us for a conversation and interactive session about the challenges HR faces when bringing a new paradigm to our leaders that requires a significant culture shift in a short period of time.
