Embracing change Find new ways to make a difference

So many things in our world have changed daily, especially since the onset of the pandemic. We’ve had to adapt to new ways of doing business, working remotely, celebrating life’s events in more creative ways, you name it! As Socrates said, “ …the secret of change is to focus all of your energy not on fighting the old, but on building the new.”
So many new, exciting changes are coming to Hermann Sons Life! We have new technology coming, convention is around the corner, the prospect of new products on the horizon, new agents joining us and we are seeing great improvements at the Camp thanks to the hard work of Ian and his team. Camp numbers are up this year, so even more of our junior members will get to enjoy these improvements. With the convention coming in May and the election of our new board of directors, it’s a great time to get involved and talk with the candidates about the changes you’d like to see and how we can reinvent ourselves so that future generations can be a part of Hermann Sons Life! It’s important that we have discussions about what appeals to our younger generations and upcoming members so we can ensure we meet their needs and stay relevant as an organization. If you’re interested in talking with the candidates for the upcoming board of directors election, their information and credentials are detailed in the April newspaper which you can find online.
While change is difficult, it opens the door for opportunities. Without change, we become stagnant as people and as an organization. It’s never easy and comes with its own set of challenges, but embracing change means that we can thrive again and become even stronger. Finding new ways to grow and change represents more ways to help others and strengthen our community. Let’s work together to change, get involved and make a difference!
“Progress is impossible without change and those who cannot change their minds cannot change anything.” ~ George Bernard Shaw
