Helping companies increase productivity and revenues utilizing talent management skills in a changing economic environment, was the focus of the 3rd Innovation Advisory Council meeting, held by insurance business processing leader ReSource Pro and moderated by Pat Licata of New Heights Consulting.

The workshop, which was held on October 6th at Lipscomb and Pitts Insurance in Memphis, TN, focused on how to maximize the value of time spent on key activities that drive profit (e.g. customer face time, prospecting, customer service, etc.) and minimizing (or shifting) lower value work (e.g. processing.) Licata presented members of the audience with case studies and specific tools for both change and talent management tools.

“It is an honor for ReSource Pro to be included in this elite group of entrepreneurial companies”, said Dan Epstein, CEO. “ Credit for doubling our income every year over the past three years is totally due to the extraordinary effort and commitment of our employees. The entire ReSource Pro team has shown an unceasing commitment, pride and passion in building a company that offers them both a home and a future. The defining difference is that everyone knows that our true strength is in the value we create and the relationships that we build for our client partners.”

Specific concerns of attendees, clients of ReSource Pro’s business process outsourcing, included the redirection of talent in utilizing time that had been freed up through the outsourcing process. For instance, if outsourcing of data processing released up to 10,000 minutes of time for a CSR, how could that time be redirected most effectively into higher service standards, revenue retention and and new business producing activity.

Dan Epstein, ReSource Pro CEO, commented, “Effective talent management often means redeploying people to more fully leverage their skills and capabilities. This workshop is designed to provide insurance agencies with the tools and expertise to fully reap the rewards of redeployment, since change management can be challenging. In a tough economy, finding opportunity and releasing creativity within one’s existing talent pool is often the most effective way to drive differentiation and improve performance.”
