we inspire customer confidence; and we work
together to win together." Among its many successful
initiatives and programs, Economical also has an
Inclusion, Diversity, Equity, and Accessibility
Advisory Committee (IDEAAC) made up of executive
sponsors who are also mentors to their employee
group chairs, which include an Anti-Racism Group,
LGBTQ+ Group, Multiculture Group, and Women's
Leadership Impact Group.

hold onto those things that we have always been
great at, and then let's ask ourselves a question:
'How does our company need to evolve to have
another 150 years?'"
