Celebrating Black History Month 2025
As we close out Black History Month 2025, we take a moment to reflect on the vibrant celebrations and meaningful engagements that highlighted the rich history and invaluable contributions of the Black community that we all share, both at Lockton and beyond. This month has been a testament to our commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion, and a celebration of the diverse perspectives that our Associates and Producers bring to our business every day. In the Midwest, we embraced the spirit of Black History Month with engaging trivia sessions that not only educated but also rewarded participants with prizes from Black-owned businesses. Our happy hour events provided a platform to recognize the outstanding contributions of our Black Associate Resource Group. Our West region hosted a variety of events that brought our Associates together in celebration and learning. Denver organized both a breakfast and happy hour event, complete with raffle prizes supporting local Black-owned businesses. San Francisco's visit to the Museum of the African Diaspora (MoAD) and Black History Month trivia/happy hour offered a blend of cultural enrichment and fun. In Seattle, we enjoyed a soul food lunch while learning about the remarkable inventions from Black Americans, highlighting the ingenuity and creativity that has shaped our world. The Northeast and Southeast led a benefits education event, empowering our Associates to better understand and utilize their Lockton benefits. This initiative underscored our commitment to supporting the wellbeing and professional growth of our team members. The Southeast hosted a happy hour where they highlighted Black-owned wineries and distilleries, including Kumusha, Viarae, House of Brown, Chaos Theory, Seven Daughters, Teremana Tequila, Uncle Nearest Premium Whiskey, Mocktail Club and Theopolis Vineyards. Associates had a great time learning about each company and trying new beverages. In Texas, Houston enjoyed a delightful lunch at Lucille's and a tour of the Houston Museum of African American Culture, immersing themselves in the rich cultural heritage of the Black community. Meanwhile, Dallas and Plano hosted trivia and lunch events, creating opportunities for learning and connection. Black History Month 2025 has been a powerful reminder of the strength that comes from embracing diversity and fostering an inclusive environment. As we move forward, we remain committed to celebrating and uplifting the voices and contributions of the Black community, not just during Black History Month but every month of the year.

Leanna Mazzeffe has always had an eye for creativity, whether it’s shaping a brand’s story online or building a business with her family. At Lockton, she’s found a workplace that not only values her expertise but also encourages her to push boundaries and bring fresh ideas to the table while supporting her entrepreneurial journey outside of the office.
