I have several people out right now on the RP team, which has created some additional challenges around getting new business bound and through the finish line, among other things. What stood out to me today was not just that Josh helped, but the attitude and energy he brought to it, with no questions asked. He had a genuine willingness to step up, pick up, wrap it up and help me, help David and get this thing handled.

He was eager to jump in, willing to take ownership, and focused on finding solutions to the pending bind subjectivities and changes we got from David. He didn't know the full extent of the staffing challenges I was working through in RP, yet he stepped up simply because help was needed. That level of teamwork makes a real difference.

Thank you for stepping up and being a team player today. Your help did not go unnoticed, Josh.

Matt has recently been working on an extensive, time consuming claim for one of my insureds and he has been such a great asset during this time. He has been very responsive not only to the insured, but also to me keeping me updated so that I am aware of where we are when the insured calls me. Matt also went above and beyond on this claim by taking extra steps to make sure that we utilized every option on behalf of this insured. Thank you Matt for being so thorough and communicative during this process.

Yarden was heading out for the day, and I told him about my tricky billing situation I was having. Not only did he stop to help troubleshoot, but he was able to locate the correct call center that gave the information I needed and avoided additional confusion with the client. I really appreciated the time he took with me on the call, even after what was most likely a busy day for him. It also helped me me learn some vital skills for how to be direct on phone calls. This small gesture is why he's one of the best producers around. Thank you Yarden for your support!

Big thanks to Deb Byrne for immediately stepping in to help out a fellow teammate on a rush request this week when many were tied up in service summit!

I can imagine floating between many different accounts daily can be a challenge, and so appreciate how she handles it in stride. Thank you Deb for being a fantastic colleague!

Since I joined CG a month ago, Maggie and the whole EB department have been really welcoming. If there is chance I hadn't met someone, Maggie is quick to introduce us. It has made me feel like I am part of the whole company and not just Employee Benefits. The culture here was a big part of why I decided to join, and Maggie's been key to helping me settle in and feel like part of the team. She's great at breaking the ice and making introductions feel natural.

I had an issue with a vendor who sent an invoice to the wrong email address. We had an upcoming safety meeting that was at risk of being cancelled as they had not yet been paid. Recognizing the error, Sam and Sarina stepped up to the plate and got this taken care of immediately so we could continue without a hitch and without the client ever knowing the scramble behind-the-scenes. Thank you both!

Amanda is fantastic. I feel so lucky to work with her. She is organized, positive, thorough, and kind. Can't say enough about how lucky CG is to have her!

Ashley was a key contributor in the San Antonio office expansion project. She did a great job coordinating everything on the IT side, from moving the existing cabling to installing the new cabling and making sure everything was set up and ready to go. What could have been a complicated process felt smooth and easy because of the work she put in.

Her communication, organization, and attention to detail really made a difference for our office. Everything came together seamlessly, and it allowed our team to stay focused without any disruption.

Really appreciate all the effort you put into making this a success. Great work and thank you again!

Ethan is always so helpful, approachable, and fast to get us back up and working if there are IT issues. Thank you Ethan!!!

I want to recognize Nancy for her exceptional communication, attention to detail, and thorough documentation throughout the marketing of our complex mergers and acquisitions of our private equity accounts spanning multiple industry segments. These placements can be intricate and fast‑moving, and Nancy consistently demonstrates clarity, organization, and proactive follow‑through at every step. Her ability to break down complex carrier requests, track moving parts, and communicate updates promptly has been invaluable. Nancy ensures nothing slips through the cracks, and her documentation makes it easy for our team — and our clients — to understand each stage of the marketing process. Thank you, Nancy, for your professionalism, responsiveness, and dedication. Your work adds tremendous value to our M&A submissions, and I truly appreciate your partnership.

I want to take a moment to express my gratitude to Jessica for always willing to share her knowledge, offer guidance, answer questions, and brainstorm solutions to solve a problem. Your teamwork does not go unnoticed.

I wanted to take a moment to recognize Andrew for going above and beyond his role to support IT and our San Antonio office!

When our team needed help getting a new network switch configured and ready for our San office expansion, Andrew stepped up without hesitation. Despite this falling well outside the typical scope of a producer, he rolled up his sleeves and brought his skills and initiative to the table, ensuring our infrastructure was properly set up.

This kind of team-first attitude and willingness to do whatever it takes makes a huge difference. Thank you, Andrew, for your flexibility, your effort, and for helping set our San Antonio team up for success!
