Change Management in the insurance industry: "Clash of Cultures"?

The insurance industry is undergoing significant transformation due to various factors like changing customer behavior and digitization. Resistance to change is common due to conservative corporate cultures. Strategies for successful change include involving employees early, transparency, and leadership involvement. A case study of Axa Insurance AG demonstrates successful change management through cultural transformation and employee engagement. Embracing change as a norm and fostering a culture of adaptability are crucial for long-term success in the industry.
