How the QLD MTA is helping to future proof the industry

 

Episode intro:
Editor Sam is out and about with her recorder once again, this time to the impressive Motor Trade’s Association HQ in Queensland for a nice chat with Rod Camm (Group CEO).

 

Rod is a real innovator who works tirelessly to tackle the age-old problems in our industry, such as recruitment and the education of insurers. We hear about the workgroup he built up for industry thinkers to debate these issues, and some of his other solutions to help the industry move with the times and be an attractive proposition for the next generation.
