2 - 4 pm Contractual Risk Transfer, Additional Insureds and Certificates of Insurance
Chris Boggs - Approved for 2 p-c CE credits in Mo. and Kan.
What are the goals of CRT and AI status? Should you push back against these requirements or go on about your day and not worry about what you just gave up? We can turn our attention to the requirement placed on your insured and YOU that general liability coverage be provided on a “primary and noncontributory” basis. Because of the CRT, AI and PNC requests/requirements placed on the insured, you will inevitably be faced with inappropriate COI requests. This session addresses each of these concepts giving you insight on what you need to do to protect your client and comply with the contractual requirements without overstepping your authority.

9 - 10:15 am Keynote Address: Swim Like a Shark: How to Grow Future-Focused Organizations and Empower the Next Generation of Emerging Talent
Michael Parrish DuDell
As the workplace continues to evolve at a rapid pace, organizations are discovering that the key to fostering innovation, leveraging talent, and
maintaining relevance is rooted in deeply authentic, hyper-personalized employee engagement. With “underutilization” ranked as the most common contributor to job dissatisfaction, and more than 53 percent of Americans actively disengaged at work (according to a recent Gallup poll), future-focused leaders have a unique opportunity to accelerate performance and boost fulfillment by tapping into an “architecture of engagement” and utilizing this framework to create a highly responsive culture of collaboration. In this keynote, entrepreneur and bestselling business author of the official business book series for ABC’s “Shark Tank,” Michael Parrish DuDell showcases the tools, tactics, and techniques
that companies across all sectors can use to amplify impact and shares actionable ways to more effectively empower the next generation of emerging talent.

1:30 - 3:30 pm Named Insureds: Who Should Be, Who Can Be, and Who Shouldn't Be
Chris Boggs - Approved for 2 p-c CE credits in Mo. and Kan.
Before any claim is paid, status as an “insured” must exist. Is the person or entity suffering or causing loss, injury or damage an insured? If the answer is “no,” there is no need to go any further. If “insured” status does not exist, all your hard work is wasted; no one will ever find out how good you are at designing coverage – because you messed up at the beginning. If you mess this up, you will have a ticked off insured and maybe an E&O claim you never expected. You have to get this one detail – the named insured – correct.
