Have you ever stopped and watched what goes on around you in your surroundings? Whether it occurs in your neighborhood, at the airport or at a local sporting event, it’s bound to happen soon. People walking around like zombies. Everywhere! People wondering around aimlessly. People walking around and staring at their phones while they move with zero purpose. Zombies. The speaker for this session will share lessons from his adventures of traveling over 60-70 trips a year, which includes some of his mistakes and some of his observations. Some of what will be shared could have ultimately been fatal if the circumstances were right.

The day a large claim arrives and you discover you didn’t have the coverage or status you thought you had will not qualify as one of your better days. Don’t be surprised at one of those critical moments! Develop a process to ensure appropriate insurance requirements are included and you receive what parties agreed to. You also can’t do it all by yourself, which means training a team and managing COIs, not just filing them. Ensure that the words, “but I thought . . .” never apply to this topic.

Attendee Takeaways:

1. Develop contract language that leaves no doubt as to what is required and how it must be documented
2. Identify higher risk agreements and activities that require extra attention
3. Review options for actively managing COIs instead of just filing them
