We’ve worked hard to create a company that is welcoming and respectful, that inspires people to make their best contributions, that innovates and executes to a high standard, and that does it all by staying keenly focused on the changing needs of our customers.
The award-winning SHINE ONboarding program includes three virtual, instructor-led training events held during an employee’s first six months to help them understand Argo Group’s culture.
Instilling our Core Values
Argo Group’s Core Values are part of everything we do. We believe in:
- The entrepreneurial spirit
- Doing the right thing
- Collaborating
- Respecting each other
We dedicate two of our three onboarding sessions to exploring these values. It provides new employees with an opportunity to address such topics as:
- Cultural intelligence
- Emotional intelligence
- Change management
- Design thinking
Each session incorporates interactive simulations, gaming techniques and engagement with various business leaders and subject matter experts.
Organizational improvement capstone
To empower new employees to make a difference at Argo Group early in their careers, those attending their orientation together are placed in a capstone project cohort.
For the first six months of employment, cohort members are tasked with identifying an improvement opportunity within the organization. They work together and with various departments throughout the company to achieve their objective, applying the learnings derived from SHINE.
