  • Agency Compensation 360…on Hold

The initial deadline has come and gone.Although, members who completed the survey by November 2 will receive access to the analytics dashboard once it’s released. Those who began the survey but didn’t finish by that date can still submit their responses by Friday, November 7 to be included in the initial analytics release. Members who have not yet started—or who don’t complete the survey by November 7—will have another opportunity to participate when the survey reopens in December.

What is Agency Compensation 360?

The way agencies attract and retain talent is evolving — and data is the new advantage. Catalyit, in partnership with BIGiOK and 37 Big “I” state associations, introduces Agency Compensation 360, the first comprehensive, multi-state survey built exclusively for independent agencies. Participants receive free access to powerful, interactive dashboards that reveal compensation, benefits, and staffing trends across the industry. With this insight, you can benchmark your agency, identify opportunities, and strengthen your recruiting and retention strategies. Get ready to lead with knowledge — and reward success with confidence.

  • From Chaos to Confidence

Every leader and every agency is unique. That’s why coaching is never one-size-fits-all. It’s crafted to meet you where you are, whether that’s refining a strategy you already have in motion or untangling the frustrations that keep you from moving forward.

Chaos is a part of leadership, but staying in chaos for too long prevents you from reaching your full potential. Executive Coaching is about transformation:
– Identifying what’s fueling your challenges
– Creating a clear track toward your goals
– Moving forward with renewed clarity and confidence

When order replaces chaos, the results are powerful.
