This announcement follows recent leadership changes within the company. Earlier this year, Falvey Insurance Group announced a leadership transition with Mike Falvey moving into the role of executive chairman and Jack Falvey assuming the position of CEO. In March, the company also expanded its board of directors with the appointment of Gina Perini, chair and CEO of Somos, Inc., bringing experience in global communications, technology, and operational strategy.
The retirement of Robert E. Falvey marks a significant change in the company’s leadership, but his continued involvement ensures continuity and ongoing strategic guidance for Falvey Insurance Group.
