Last month, Red River Mutual hosted an Open House, at our Winnipeg office to welcome our brokers to share an evening of networking, celebration, and connection with all our staff. Through various activities including an office scavenger hunt, live drone demonstrations for loss prevention inspections, live entertainment, food, and beverage. Brokers were given the opportunity to connect with our staff in a relaxed environment. Staff from all of our broker-facing departments attended the evening, including our senior leadership team.

“Our broker partners play a vital role in the success of Red River Mutual. They help us build a legacy of trust and collaboration, often spanning multiple generations.” – Jeff Haddon, Manager of Business Development & Distribution

“I had a great time meeting some of the staff as well as meeting other brokers.” – Broker Partner

At Red River Mutual, we believe that the foundation of our success lies in the partnerships we foster with our brokers and the dedicated efforts of our staff. Events like these are crucial as they provide a platform for meaningful interactions, fostering a deeper understanding and mutual respect between our teams and broker partners.

“I spoke to many underwriters and connected with a lot of people. In my opinion, this was one of the better if not the best put on broker relations event I’ve been to in years.” – Broker Partner

Why These Events Matter:

Strengthening Relationships: By bringing together our brokers and staff, we create opportunities for open conversation, shared insights, and collaborative problem-solving. These interactions help us understand each other’s needs and challenges better, paving the way for more effective partnerships.

“Brokers are essential in sharing the value of Red River Mutual with customers. We continuously foster relationships with our broker partners to ensure an ease of communication always exists, allowing us to efficiently assess the best solutions for customers.” – Brenda Gibson, President & CEO

Boosting Morale and Engagement: Engaging with our brokers allows them and our staff to see firsthand the impact of their work, fostering a sense of pride and commitment.

“The relationships we have with our broker partners are pivotal to our industry’s success. They not only allow for healthy business discussions, but they also provide a fulfilling and enjoyable workplace, wherein the end goal is to meet or exceed the needs and expectations of the policyholder.” – Charlene Henderson, Director of Commercial & Farm Underwriting

Driving Business Success: Strong relationships directly contribute to our joint growth and success. We want to ensure our partners feel valued and supported, knowing we will advocate for them just as much as they advocate for us and our products and services.
