BCS is excited to share that Tammy Kocher, Assistant Vice President, Cyber Underwriting, was recently named a winner of the 2022 Elite Women by Insurance Business America (IBA).
Tammy was selected by a panel of esteemed judges based on her achievements and initiatives over the past 12 months, including examples of her professional accomplishments and contributions to the entire insurance industry.
The Elite Women honor was started to further improve and promote women in the insurance industry, where they account for only 11% of named executive offer positions and 19% of board seats at insurance companies pre-pandemic (source: IBA). According to IBA, the typical Elite Woman “…is forward-looking and takes bold steps to move strategies forward. She builds powerful teams while championing her colleagues. She is a demonstrated leader who fosters a culture of inclusion, which engenders collaboration and innovation. She harnesses this energy to deliver results, bringing creative solutions and products to her customers while creating value and growing revenue. In addition, she knows that diverse, inclusive teams deliver superior results. And her authenticity shines and guides her career development.”
Timothy LeMarbre, Vice President, Underwriting Property and Casualty, echoed these sentiments, saying “Tammy is a remarkable underwriter, leader, and colleague. She brings unmatched enthusiasm to her job everyday and refuses to let anyone, or anything, stand in the way of her success. She is an inspiration to all her colleagues at BCS, and a shining example of what a leader should look like in the world of cyber underwriting.”
