    Continuous Conversations: Our feedback and development culture

    When it comes to performance management, we at Munich Re strive to create open and honest dialogues that are ongoing and meaningful, that provide multi-directional feedback, and which drive collaboration across the globe. Our Continuous Conversations approach has no formal processes or ratings. Instead it relies entirely on our colleagues’ active engagement. We believe Continuous Conversations will help us build on our strengths and will encourage self-responsibility across roles and disciplines. Performance happens every day and the Continuous Conversations is in tune with this reality. For our future-oriented, innovative approach to Continuous Conversations, we received the HR Global Excellence Award 2020 as well as the InnoWard 2021 of the German insurance industry.

    The power of being different

    At Munich Re, we see diversity as the full spectrum of individual differences — from gender, cultural background, and age to experience, personality, and perspectives. We value these differences and are committed to fostering an inclusive workplace where everyone feels respected, safe, and empowered to thrive.

    Inclusion is at the heart of how we work, lead, and grow. We design our development programs, build teams, and shape leadership with inclusion in mind. By embracing diverse voices and ways of thinking, we spark innovation and create solutions that drive meaningful progress for our company and for society.

    Soon, you will be joining a deeply talented, diverse network of colleagues. All working to enable the world to act braver and better.
