Does GEICO have an internal womens network or special programs for its professional women?
At GEICO, we have a wonderful officer group, and the women officers are smart and skilled and very good role models. They are very generous with their time and talent, and its easy to bounce ideas off each other and share ideas for new programs, even in early stages. I am often asked to mentor an individual that aspires to move forward in the organization, be it a woman or man, and Im always pleased to do that. We often have lunch-and-learn sessions with those were mentoring. GEICO also has a very robust training department with a multitude of classroom and e-learning capabilities for all of our associates. Q: Early in your career, did you participate in any programs designed for women? A: Let me think back… My first job right out of college I worked for a general manager that told me that even though I did good work and had many successes, he was not going to give me a merit increase because I was married and it would just be pin money for me. First, I had to find out what pin money
