Advancing Women's Careers in Insurance

As part of our commitment to lead the industry in advocating for women in insurance, we developed a program called SHE Travels® – named to highlight Travelers’ support of the positive momentum of women in our industry. SHE Travels has three priorities:

• Raise awareness of insurance as an attractive career opportunity for women.
• Promote professional development for women already in the industry.
• Facilitate effective networking and mentoring for those women.

At the heart of SHE Travels is a series of Women’s Leadership Forums focused on topics for advancing women in the workplace. Since the program’s inception in 2018, more than 5,000 Travelers agents and employees have participated in 40 live and virtual events across the country, discussing topics such as modern mentoring, career advancement and work-life integration in a COVID world.

In honor of International Women’s Day 2020, we launched our SHE Travels LinkedIn group – an online professional community for women and allies, where our colleagues and agency partners can learn from and support one another. The group helps to facilitate meaningful conversations and connections and has grown to over 3,500 participants. We also have a SHE Travels video series where women share their stories about how smart risk-taking helped them advance their careers. Through SHE Travels, we hope to empower our people, shape our culture and pave the way for all women who do and will work at Travelers.
