The situation

A PE-backed insurer grew through acquisitions from 400 people in 4 countries to around 3,000 in 6, and from ~€10bn to ~€70bn of assets under management.

What we did

We helped define new company values and ran manager and leader programmes for groups of around 12, run in three blocks over three months, covering leading change, feedback and psychological safety.

What changed

The business has made significant progress towards a single culture across the acquired companies, which supports its continued growth. The work is ongoing.
