Webb Insurance Group (Lake Forest IL)

Leveraging 20 years of industry experience, and the lessons learned in growing my own small business, I worked with fellow entrepreneurs and small business owners to help them shift from confusion to confidence in navigating the nuances of business insurance. Clients worked with me through one-on-one coaching or attended an engaging workshop that I facilitated.

Founder + Consultant | Insurance Sales + Leadership + Organizational Change | Bound & Determined℠🎙 Host | #digitalnomad

At the intersection of personal and professional development lies the squishy, sometimes uncomfortable midpoint - and it's here, as a consultant in the insurance industry, where you can find me. 

It's here where: 
We’re as likely to talk about insurance rate increases as we are to talk about confidence.
We’re as likely to talk about production goals as we are to talk about imposter syndrome. 
We’re as likely to talk about marketing plans as we are to talk about burnout.
We’re as likely to talk about non-renewals as we are to talk about boundaries.

If your experience is like mine, spaces like those I create - for real, relevant conversation - didn't always exist in our industry. 

So as you consider the ways you'll develop yourself and those around you, know that I believe you deserve a better option – one that supports your whole being and is fueled by experience and creativity and humor and so much truth.

It isn’t just my perspective gleaned over 25 years working as an underwriter or leader or producer in the insurance industry that influences the work I do with individuals and organizations today - it’s all of the experiences I've collected in my 45 years of life – and the experience we all have simply being human. You know I love to talk about it! 

The project-based paid consulting work I do today includes: 
- Workshop facilitation for insurance carrier, technology, and agency sales teams, with a focus on the hard market
- Design and production of insurance industry-specific women’s sales and leadership events
- Professional speaking for insurance industry events and conferences, including keynotes and panel moderation
- Facilitation of strategic leadership off-sites and retreats
- Private and small group coaching for sales, executive/leadership, and underwriting professionals
- Industry-specific research and writing for publication through print and online mediums

NB Talent 

I founded NB Talent after seeing recruiting in my industry being done all wrong. It's critical to understand the positions you are trying to fill and because I've either held them or worked closely with them, I do! I like to think I bring a fresh and unique perspective to the world of insurance recruiting.

If you're not in the insurance industry, please hit FOLLOW instead of CONNECT.  

I truly love helping people find their next great career path. I ESPECIALLY love it when I'm helping them upgrade from a not-so-great situation to an awesome one.  I'm honored that so many of you in the insurance industry come to me for help navigating your career path, but due to the volume of questions I get, I can't reply to everyone. I do my best to post info that I think my insurance industry peers will find valuable, but it's impossible to give specific advice to everyone who reaches out. 

If you're looking for a one-on-one about your situation, check out my "Career Navigation" calls here:   
https://www.nb-talent.com/consulting       I limit them to 3 per week so they sometimes book out a few weeks. Thanks for understanding!

I wanted to mentor and connect top talent in the insurance world with their very best career path by connecting the A+ players with the very best career opportunities.   I've DONE these jobs, so unlike most recruiters reaching out to you, I actually understand our world.   I truly love helping and mentoring people in my field. If you're crushing your goals and looking for someone in your corner to help you maximize your career potential, I'd love to connect.
