Leadership insights: networking as a catalyst for growth 

Kay McMenamin, Willis Global Specialty and Great Britain Corporate Risk & Broking (CRB) Growth Leader, reflects on the importance of connection and support. 

“Finding the balance between in-office presence and meetings on teams is something that requires careful consideration. I am supportive of my team finding this balance, subject to there being sufficient direction and support from colleagues, developing kinship, maintaining morale and delivering for the business”. 

Kay also highlights the value of being present for her team, both locally and globally: 

“My role requires contact with various teams across the business locally and globally, but it also needs me to be present for my team.”
