NOT FOR REPRINT
Page Printed from: benefitspro.com/editors-letter/?page=2
During times like these, it can be valuable to try to put things in perspective, which often involves taking the long view
Our five 2021 Broker of the Year finalists are each focused on embracing change and guiding their clients through the turbulent days ahead.
Despite making enormous leaps and bounds in recent years around technology, the benefits industry is still, at its core, all about people.
COVID-19 has changed our lives in countless ways, both subtle and earth-shattering, personal and societal.
The many lessons we've learned about resilience and sacrifice in the last year will remain key as we push forward into a new normal.
Every crystal ball is cloudy, at best. But there's reason to be optimistic about the coming year.
Never before have employers and employees been more ready to consider change.
However the parties approach the coming months, health care is on the minds of many Americans, drawn into sharper focus by the ongoing pandemic.
No matter how quickly we adapt, it's never quite enough.
Why, after years of saying the right things and vowing to do better, does our industry still look so much like it always has?
