Swiss Re is the leading global reinsurer with 10,000 employees serving clients in over 160 countries through 79 offices around the world. Impact developed an interactive, challenging and innovative five-day learning journey reaching 300 people worldwide.
In partnership with Swiss Re Academy, Impact designed and delivered a transformational leadership programme (TLS). The project was a huge initiative targeted at developing the interpersonal leadership skills of the top 300 people in the organisation worldwide.
Together we designed an interactive, challenging and innovative five-day learning journey. TLS is a very intensive programme comprising three main parts, which progressively shift the focus from the organisation to the individual leader.
After four highly successful years, the final TLS programme closed in November 2008. During this time almost all of the top 300 Swiss Re leaders have been challenged, stimulated and enjoyed the programme.
In June 2008 Impact and Swiss Re won the Excellence in Practice Award for ‘Partnership in Organisation Development’ from the European Foundation for Management Development.
