Ellen Greiper (Partner-New York, NY) attended the “Women in Insurance Summit,” held in New York City on September 21, 2023. As somebody passionate about diversity and inclusion, Ellen said, in the October 2 issue of Insurance News, she’s proud that her team represents the communities it serves – and proud to be unafraid of calling out poor behaviors or company cultures when she sees them. “And I must say if it were not for my community, I would not have been able to break the glass ceiling. They lifted me up and so I lift up those around me, and I can see the success of paying that forward when I see my associates moving up to partner, and when I see how they can care about our clients and work tirelessly to take care of them.”
