Big I Illinois Announces New CEO
Big I Illinois has named Brett Gerger as Chief Executive Officer, effective July 1. Gerger has served the association since 2019 and succeeds Phil Lackman, who is retiring after 31 years with Big I Illinois. View the press release here.
Watch for more coverage in Insight, including a July feature honoring Phil Lackman’s 31 years with the association and an August feature to help members get to know Brett.
The resources are incredible. Beyond E&O coverage, legal advice, the PAC, and plenty of other benefits I’m probably forgetting, the most valuable resource has always been the human one. Whenever an issue comes up in my business, I know there are people I can reach out to through Big I Illinois—or connections I’ve made through the association—who’ve been through it too and are always willing to help.
