KUALA LUMPUR, April 18 (Bernama) -- Duck Creek Technologies, the intelligent solutions provider defining the future of property and casualty (P&C) and general insurance, hosted its One Duck Creek Summit in Columbia, South Carolina, bringing employees together from across the globe.

According to the company in a statement, attendees are recognised for their roles in the many councils and programmes that help Duck Creek create a culture of excellence in insurance and technology.

The diverse group will convene over the next two days to discuss the past year’s goals and objectives as well as plan for the future to continue enhancing the company’s award-winning culture, as it endeavours to foster a culture of belonging and respect, where every voice is heard and valued.

Duck Creek Global Director of DE&I, Engagement & Culture, Amy Bayer said as a global company, it recognised the importance of having a diverse and inclusive workforce that reflects the communities and customers it served.

“We believe our DE&I programmes are imperative for our employees, but also a strategic advantage that enables us to innovate, collaborate, and deliver better solutions for our clients.

“The One Duck Creek Summit is a great opportunity to celebrate our achievements, share best practices, and inspire each other to continue building a great culture,” she said.

The summit kicks off with its Chief Executive Officer, Mike Jackowski highlighting the importance of promoting strong company values that focus on diversity, equity, inclusion and belonging (DEI&B) and a positive employee experience.

It also features keynote speakers which empower employees to connect and learn about other successful workplaces and cultures.

One of the highlights of the annual summit is a social impact event, in which, this year, Duck Creek has partnered with Ronald McDonald House Charities in Columbia.

Summit attendees will support their Pack-a-Smile programme, offering close family members of children receiving care at local hospitals a quick, nutritious bagged lunch, which enables family members not to have to leave the bedside or wonder when or where their next meal will come from.
