Globalization is a business concept that encourages international trade to strengthen the economic situation between countries. Discuss with the interviewer your thoughts on how this practice may affect the Insurance industry and, more specifically, Progressive.

"I feel that globalization has forced many companies to be creative and flexible in their business insurance needs. Namely, companies that now have international offices hire offshore employees and participate in global trade. It has caused the Insurance industry to think outside of the box and has, in my opinion, created some very thought-provoking challenges."
