Who We Are
Nationwide is a company where every voice is heard and valued. We understand the importance of associates with different backgrounds, experiences and perspectives coming together to serve our customers.
"I am proud of our associates and agents who help protect what matters most to our customers," Nationwide CEO Stephen S. Rasmussen said. "It’s our commitment to diversity and inclusion that helps us meet our On Your Side promise every day. From our board of directors to our executive team to our associates and agents, we know we can accomplish great things together."
Our philosophy
Nationwide believes there is a distinct difference between diversity and inclusion.
True diversity is greater than gender or race. It's all-inclusive. We seek out a winning combination of academic backgrounds, ages, cultures, life circumstances, thinking styles and interests. We want to pursue, develop and champion unique and talented associates at all levels.
Inclusion is about fully engaging and developing our employees. Creating an inclusive workforce that develops its people is our goal and ultimate success as a company.
This philosophy enhances our performance as a company by:
- Understanding the global market we serve
- Providing the most effective products and services to our customers
- Relying on diverse suppliers through our Supply Management Services
- Serving as an integral member of the communities where we work and live
- Attracting, hiring, retaining and developing the best associates
This way, we can better serve our broad customer base with associates who represent our society.
