Celebrating community impact and sustainability with Sovereign in 2023

In workplaces around the world, the message has been received loud and clear: Diversity, equity and inclusion (DE&amp;I) is fundamental to success. According to a recent global study, an overwhelming 93% of business leaders view DE&amp;I as more important now than at the beginning of 2020. More than half said their DE&amp;I efforts largely contribute to their business success, up from 22% three years ago.1 While many companies have taken concrete actions to eliminate racism, sexism, and discrimination in the workplace, and create more inclusive cultures, a blind spot may be impeding some of their efforts: unconscious bias (also called implicit bias or hidden bias).&nbsp; As the term implies, unconscious bias is an association, judgment, or attitude about a person or group that operates beyond our control and awareness, informs our perceptions, and influences our decision-making and behaviour.2&nbsp; Experts say everyone holds unconscious biases &ndash; it&rsquo;s just how our brains are wired. Since the human brain processes millions of bits of information per second, the brain creates mental shortcuts by seeking out patterns to categorize information. Through this cognitive process, every individual develops preferences or biases.3 Some of the most common types of unconscious bias are:&nbsp;
<ul>
<li>Gender bias &ndash; a stereotypical belief about someone based solely on their gender</li>
<li>Affinity bias &ndash; a preference towards people who have similar qualities, backgrounds, or viewpoints</li>
<li>Beauty bias &ndash; forming opinions about someone based on their appearance and physical characteristics&nbsp;</li>
<li>Conformity bias &ndash; the desire to agree with anything a group of people says, despite one&rsquo;s own opinions4 </li>
</ul>
While not all unconscious biases are bad (some can be useful to make quick decisions), they can be a problem in the workplace at all levels, from recruitment and promotion outcomes to interactions between colleagues, managers, and customers. For example, a manager may pass up a new mom for promotion because they fear she won&rsquo;t have the time or energy to juggle work and family responsibilities, a manager may hire someone for a new role because they went to the same university, or business leaders may provide ideas about a project and encourage others to agree with them. Without action, unconscious biases can hurt employee morale and lead to low retention rates.5 The question is, if these biases happen outside our control, how can employees check them at the door? Although we can&rsquo;t eliminate our unconscious biases altogether, we can learn how to recognize them and mitigate their impact in the workplace.&nbsp; Raise awareness and understanding:&nbsp;As with most things, being aware of unconscious bias is the first step. Continue to educate yourself on the many types of unconscious bias and how these biases manifest in the workplace &ndash; and share your learning. Educate and train employees and colleagues on the types of unconscious bias, the negative consequences that can arise, and how to avoid making decisions based on these biases.6 Challenge your thinking: Before you react to a situation or make a decision, get into the habit of asking yourself, &ldquo;Why am I thinking this way?&rdquo;7&nbsp;Take the time to review your decisions (especially those related to people and their careers) and assess your own biases. Ask others for feedback and ask yourself if your decision would be different if it involved a person from a different social identity group.8 Refine your recruitment process: Unconscious bias often shows up in the recruitment process. For example, a job description might be geared towards a certain age or gender, a manager might form an opinion about a candidate based on their looks, or someone on the team might favour a candidate because they share a similar interest outside of work. To remove unconscious bias, experts advise:&nbsp;<a href="https://www.sovereigninsurance.ca/Advice-and-Tools/Purpose-and-Impact/4-ways-to-drive-diversity-in-recruitment">using inclusive language in job postings</a>; using a &ldquo;blind&rdquo; process to review resumes, which focuses on qualifications rather than demographic characteristics; and conducting standardized interviews with defined questions and scorecards.9&nbsp; Go beyond your comfort zone: Involve yourself with people and groups with different backgrounds to learn about their perspectives and experiences, and encourage others to do the same. Having these conversations in the workplace allows people to network, learn, and grow with colleagues they might not have otherwise met.10&nbsp;Moving beyond your comfort zone and getting to know people on an individual level can also help you combat personal biases.11 There are plenty more ways to address unconscious bias, but every step can help mitigate the negative effects on your organization and help you see the benefits in plain sight.&nbsp;

At Sovereign, we believe that <a href="~/diversityinclusionjourney" title="" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Inclusion, Diversity, Equity and Accessibility (IDEA)</a> is the foundation of who we are and how we act. It&rsquo;s why we&rsquo;re driven to collaborate with industry and community partners to amplify our collective efforts to drive positive change.
Now in our second year of partnership, we&rsquo;re proud to stand with the <a href="https://cabip.ca/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Canadian Association of Black Insurance Professionals (CABIP)</a>. Together, we advocate for representation, inclusion and advancement of Black insurance professionals within the Canadian insurance industry. To celebrate renewing our partnership, we reached out to Richard McGee, CABIP Co-founder and Chair of the Board of Directors to share CABIP&rsquo;s perspective on why our relationship continues to matter and how we will continue to create impact together. Q. For those who may not know your work, can you share a bit about CABIP and who you support? A. The Canadian Association of Black Insurance Professionals (CABIP) was founded to advance the representation, development, and elevation of Black professionals across Canada&rsquo;s insurance industry. As a national not-for-profit, we serve individuals at every career stage &mdash; from students and early career entrants to seasoned executives &mdash; while also supporting organizations seeking meaningful pathways to embed equitable and inclusive practices to address anti-Black racism.&nbsp; Our mission is grounded in advocacy, mentorship, education, and networking. &nbsp;We strive to remove systemic barriers and create opportunities that reflect the rich diversity of our industry and the communities it serves. CABIP exists to support Black professionals while strengthening the industry by fostering workplaces where diverse perspectives are valued, empowered, and actively cultivated. Q. How has this partnership with Sovereign Insurance supported your work in advancing diversity, equity and inclusion for Black professionals in the insurance industry? A. Our partnership with Sovereign has been instrumental in expanding both the reach and impact of CABIP&rsquo;s work. Through Sovereign&rsquo;s commitment to evidence based inclusion &mdash; reinforced by its ROI of DEI study &mdash; we have been able to demonstrate the measurable value of equitable workplaces, further strengthening our advocacy efforts.&nbsp; Sovereign&rsquo;s support has enabled CABIP to scale programming, enhance mentorship networks, and provide platforms that elevate Black talent across the industry. Their willingness to engage deeply, listen intentionally, and invest in long term change reflects a shared belief that diversity, equity and inclusion is not an initiative, but together, they are an organizational imperative. Through this partnership, we continue to advance a more inclusive insurance ecosystem where Black professionals can thrive and lead confidently. Q. From your perspective, what role can partnerships like this play in creating more inclusive systems or environments? A. Partnerships like ours with Sovereign play a transformative role in reshaping industry systems and culture. When organizations commit to shared learning and collective progress, they help shift inclusion from aspiration to action. Sovereign&rsquo;s ROI of DEI research underscores that inclusion is not only morally essential but strategically advantageous &mdash; improving innovation, decision making, and organizational performance.&nbsp; By collaborating across institutions, we can challenge systemic inequities, broaden access to opportunities, and embed sustainable practices that benefit current and future generations of Black insurance professionals, and therefore propel the industry and customer experience. These partnerships serve as catalysts for industry wide accountability and create models that others can replicate. Q. Can you share an example of an initiative or outcome that captures the impact of working together with Sovereign as a partner? A. One approach that demonstrates our shared impact is the expanded professional development programming supported by Sovereign, which has strengthened CABIP&rsquo;s capacity to deliver high value learning experiences. &nbsp; Through this support, we have been able to host targeted workshops, leadership sessions, and networking forums designed to equip Black professionals with the tools and connections needed for advancement. The alignment with insights from the ROI of DEI study has further enabled us to position these initiatives as both socially necessary and organizationally beneficial.&nbsp; At the 2025 RIMS Canada Conference in Calgary, Sovereign sponsored the DEI Studio where we joined them for a discussion on the importance of diversity and inclusion in the insurance industry. This session provided a space for meaningful and critical discussion, which aligns with CABIP&rsquo;s and Sovereign&rsquo;s ongoing efforts.&nbsp;The result of these initiatives is a growing community of Black professionals who feel empowered, supported, and recognized by their industry. Q. What shared values make the relationship strong between Sovereign and CABIP? A. Continuing our partnership with Sovereign affirms a shared commitment to addressing Canada's history of systemic anti-Black racism through actions focused on equity, representation, and long term systemic change.&nbsp; What makes this collaboration so strong is our alignment in values &mdash; particularly the belief that inclusion must be intentional, measurable, and embedded in business strategy. Sovereign&rsquo;s ongoing investment and their work on the ROI of DEI demonstrate an understanding that diversity strengthens organizations, elevates performance, and creates more resilient teams.&nbsp; For CABIP, the renewal of this partnership reinforces that we are not alone in this work; we have committed allies who understand the contributions of Black Insurance Professionals, championing their advancement and amplifying their voices. CABIP is an added value resource to partners, members, and individuals who wish to be on this journey with us. Q. As you look ahead, where do you see the greatest opportunity for continued progress in inclusion and advancement of Black insurance professionals through this partnership? A. Looking ahead, the greatest opportunity lies in scaling data driven, community informed initiatives that address gaps in representation and career mobility. With insights from Sovereign&rsquo;s ROI of DEI research, we see potential to deepen organizational education, strengthen talent pipelines, and expand leadership development pathways for emerging Black professionals.&nbsp; Together, we can support more intentional hiring practices, broaden access to mentorship, and cultivate environments where Black professionals can grow into roles of increasing influence. By continuing to collaborate, we can accelerate progress and embed inclusion as a long term industry standard, not a moment in time.

Hot Topics

<h4>Why do people stay?</h4>
It&rsquo;s a question many brokerage leaders are reflecting on as they face looming retirements and increased competition for skilled talent.1 While salary, benefits, and flexibility are top concerns, the decision to stay with an employer often comes down to less tangible factors: a workplace that feels welcoming and fair, values employees&rsquo; contributions, and provides opportunities for growth.&nbsp;
The engine behind this culture is diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI), and recent research shows just how powerful it can be for brokerages. The 2025 Canadian Underwriter National Brokerage DEI Survey, sponsored by Sovereign Insurance, found that more than half of brokers (51%) believe improved retention is a key economic benefit of DEI, demonstrating that inclusive practices are smart business investments.&nbsp; When asked about benefits that contribute to a positive culture and support retention, brokers cite the following that are directly supported by effective DEI practices:
<ul>
<li>mutual respect and a welcoming environment (70%)</li>
<li>greater fairness and transparency (52%)</li>
<li>increased personal growth opportunities (48%)</li>
<li>better collaboration and cohesion (43%)</li>
</ul>
The findings make it clear: DEI is a proven driver of employee retention in the insurance sector, delivering measurable economic benefits by creating workplaces where people want to stay, grow, and contribute. &ldquo;Inclusivity isn&rsquo;t just the right thing to do. We know it drives performance,&rdquo; states Colette Taylor, Chief Operation Officer (COO) at Sovereign Insurance. &ldquo;In fact, 71% of the brokers surveyed cited that DEI drives performance within their own workplace&hellip; Some of those benefits are better employee retention, better customer satisfaction, increased innovation, and overall engagement of their employees. That&rsquo;s the ROI of inclusion.&rdquo;&nbsp; Conversely, overlooking DEI can put retention and business outcomes at risk, leading to the loss of strong employees, top talent, and even customers. It also limits the diverse perspectives that are critical for innovation and effective decision-making in insurance.&nbsp; In fact, the survey found that nearly three-quarters of brokers (74%) have left or considered leaving their workplace due to a toxic culture (45%), lack of mentorship (31%), and mental health struggles (26%). Lack of career advancement opportunities, discrimination, microaggressions, and feeling unwelcome are also cited as concerns.&nbsp; For insurance leaders, these findings underscore the importance of deepening their focus on DEI&mdash;recognizing it as a strategic investment in talent retention, workforce resilience, and long-term business success.&nbsp;
<h4>Here are a few ways to put a meaningful DEI strategy into action:</h4>
Create a welcoming environment: A warm and inclusive workplace not only helps employees feel valued and supported, but it also has a positive impact on retention.2 This type of environment isn&rsquo;t created by chance, but by intentional design. In practical terms, it encompasses everything from inclusive policies and communications to accommodating physical spaces to employee resource groups (ERGs) where employees can support each other.3 Related: <a href="https://www.sovereigninsurance.ca/advice-and-tools/hot-topics/is-your-team-silent-or-safe-creating-space-for-respectful-dialogue" title="" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Is your team silent or safe? Creating space for respectful dialogue</a>
Development inclusive career pathways: Equitable career pathways ensure all employees have the opportunity to grow and succeed. Key actions include providing mentorship programs, training opportunities, and career guidance that break down barriers to advancement. &nbsp;Promoting equity in leadership opportunities is also critical. This involves proactively seeking out talent from underrepresented groups for leadership roles and addressing biases in hiring and promotion processes.4
Related: <a href="https://www.sovereigninsurance.ca/advice-and-tools/hot-topics/mentorship-the-underused-dei-superpower" title="" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Mentorship: The underused DEI superpower</a> Recognize diverse contributions and achievements: Embracing diversity builds a more inclusive environment where everyone feels valued and empowered to contribute, ultimately leading to higher employee engagement and retention.5 Equally important is recognizing individual achievements, which strengthens the workplace community overall. A study by Gallup and Workhuman found that when employees have a strong workplace community, they&rsquo;re more likely to feel like they belong, which translates to a 43% increase in retention.6
As brokerages face a talent shortage, it&rsquo;s clear that DEI is not a temporary initiative or checkbox exercise&mdash;it&rsquo;s a key driver of retention. Creating workplaces that are welcoming, fair, and inclusive not only helps employees stay; it positions businesses for long-term success.&nbsp;

The power of DEI in retaining talent

It&rsquo;s mid-afternoon, and a few colleagues gather around the office coffee machine. Small talk quickly turns to an upcoming election, and a manager enthuses about a candidate with a poor record for gender equality. A new employee fights the urge to speak up, deciding it isn&rsquo;t worth the risk. She walks away quietly, feeling deflated.&nbsp;
Down the hall, a leadership meeting gets tense as they discuss whether to support a new return-to-office policy. Some leaders argue it will strengthen the company culture, while others worry it will disproportionately impact employees with caregiving responsibilities. The discussion gets personal, and by the end of the meeting, there&rsquo;s no clear resolution.&nbsp;
This may seem like just another day in the office, but these scenarios illustrate a serious challenge many companies face today: polarization. In the workplace, polarization is defined as a division of two sharply contrasting groups or sets of opinions, beliefs, or interests. It can take many forms, from disagreements on political and social issues to clashing viewpoints on company-wide matters.1&nbsp;
Polarization comes at a high cost: It can erode trust, morale, communication, and productivity.2 In Canadian Underwriter&rsquo;s 2025 DEI Survey, sponsored by Sovereign Insurance, 58% of brokers say polarization affects their work life, up from 49% the previous year. The most common effect cited is being less likely to talk about controversial topics (40%). If a polarizing discussion does take place, 73% of brokers cite concerns including reduced morale and engagement (40%), poor teamwork (38%), and a toxic culture (32%).&nbsp;
For leaders, the survey reveals a fear of division, a decline in morale, and breakdowns in communication&mdash;all of which threaten the relationship-based culture of brokerages. Despite these risks, many leaders are uncertain about how to facilitate polarizing discussions or don&rsquo;t feel equipped with the right tools to guide respectful dialogue.&nbsp;
While polarizing discussions can feel threatening, they don&rsquo;t have to derail your workplace. Brokerage leaders can lean into diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) principles to turn polarizing discussions into constructive dialogue. With intentional leadership and a DEI-informed approach, you can create a culture where people feel safe, respected, and able to speak openly.
Leverage existing DEI practices as your foundation. DEI practices already embedded in your brokerage give you a strong foundation to navigate tough conversations by reinforcing respect, fairness, and belonging.&nbsp;
One key practice is active listening. Leaders can model this by listening closely, refraining from interrupting and dismissing other viewpoints, and avoiding judgement. Even if you disagree, it&rsquo;s important to indicate you still hear the other person. Active listening also goes both ways: Practice reciprocity by asking someone if they&rsquo;re open to hearing your viewpoint. This reminds people of fairness and respect. If you actively listen and validate differing points of view, others will be more willing to do the same.3
Teresa Hopke, president of Talking Talent, a global gender diversity consulting firm, highlights the power of being open. &ldquo;When we encourage our teams to take on new perspectives and consider the experiences of others, we help cultivate a critical skill that directly combats polarization: curiosity,&rdquo; she writes. &ldquo;When we take the approach of continuously learning and asking questions, we&rsquo;re far less likely to get stuck in intractable conflict.4
Create structured, safe spaces for dialogue. Polarizing topics often make people afraid to speak up. Psychological safety&mdash;another core DEI practice&mdash;helps leaders create safe, respectful spaces for honest dialogue, even when opinions differ. It means people can share their opinions, ask questions, or challenge ideas, without fear of being punished, or feeling embarrassed or humiliated.5 &nbsp;In turn, this reduces the risk of self-censorship, conflict, and disengagement, while strengthening trust across teams.
When political or social issues arise, leaders can set the tone for how those discussions unfold. Reinforce that the organization values and respects all employees, including those who think or behave differently from others.6&nbsp;
When it comes to work matters, leaders should model, encourage, and support healthy conflicts, which also builds comfort in addressing more personal or sensitive topics. As workplace expert Emily Killham writes, &ldquo;Employees who know they are safe to speak up about work matters without negative consequences are more likely to feel comfortable respectfully dissenting when the matter is personal, while still maintaining teamwork.&rdquo;6
Turn polarization into an opportunity with values-aligned leadership. Leaders can build understanding, deepen relationships, and model the inclusive behaviours teams expect by viewing polarization as an opportunity. For example, imagine a manager who truly understands an employee&rsquo;s perspective, even if their political views diverge. That empathy becomes a catalyst for building trust, enabling a deeper connection and mutual understanding. One structured approach to fostering a more harmonious and cohesive workplace is known as the &ldquo;ART&rdquo; of navigating polarization: Acknowledging differences, showing respect, and cultivating trust.7
Even with the best intentions, conflicts at work can escalate and become polarizing. Actively managing conflict, not avoiding it, is critical. When leaders demonstrate that they intend to find solutions that work for everyone, people feel assured that their voices and experiences matter. And when leaders model good conflict resolution, it can have a powerful ripple effect across the organization. As Ms. Hopke writes, &ldquo;It&rsquo;s hard to keep feeling polarized and angry when we know someone is listening closely.&rdquo;8
By leaning on DEI practices such as creating respectful places and modelling inclusive behaviours, leaders make their teams safe, not silent. In this space, polarization becomes a catalyst for a culture of respect and fairness, where people feel valued and heard.
