Making an impact: Ta...
Taryn Abbott knows firsthand the power of community in the face of life’s toughest battles. Her 14-year-old son, Colin, was diagnosed with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) when he was just three years old. DMD is a rare, progressive disease that slowly weakens muscles, including the heart and lungs. Today, Colin is wheelchair-bound and fully dependent on assistance, but he continues to inspire those around him with his resilience. For more than a decade, Nationwide Children’s Hospital has been at the center of Colin’s care. With six specialists working together to manage his complex medical needs, the hospital has been a source of both expertise and hope for Taryn’s family. “We chose Nationwide because of their top-tier specialists, as well as their research teams and breakthrough clinical trials,” she says. “While there is no cure for DMD today, we remain very hopeful there will be one day.” This is why Taryn selected Nationwide Children’s Hospital as the recipient of her Community Impact Award donation. Each year, the Lockton family honors Associates who go above and beyond to serve their communities with a $25,000 donation to the organization of their choice. Taryn embodies the dedication and compassion the Community Impact Award represents. For Taryn, this recognition is about more than just her family, it’s about countless other parents navigating similar challenges. “This donation will directly impact families during difficult times and provide compassionate care for every patient. It gives families like mine hope and comfort that communities are working together to help fight for our kids.” Taryn has always believed in showing up for others. Through Colin's DREAM, her family’s nonprofit, she continues to raise funds for Nationwide Children’s Hospital, organizing events like walks, golf tournaments, and fishing tournaments. She hopes to put on a gala in the future. Taryn praises Lockton’s culture for her ability to balance her personal mission with her professional life. “Lockton provides the space, time, and support to pursue personal passions,” she says. That support became clear early in her career when her team rallied behind her family after Colin’s Make-A-Wish trip. After briefly leaving for another opportunity, Taryn quickly realized how special Lockton’s culture was. “I could immediately feel the difference,” she recalls. “Lockton is an elite agency, and I’m proud to say I’m a Lockton Associate.” “Regardless of if it’s in our personal or professional lives, most people have a battle they are facing. I always try to lend an extra hand to my clients, my team, and my community because I know I would not have made it through my own journey without the help of others. We impact each other’s lives more than we realize, and making a change in the world starts on an individual basis.” If you want to learn more about Colin’s story or donate to the study of Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy, visit colinsdream.com.

Celebrating Black Hi...
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.

My career, my story:...
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. Leanna’s career in social media began right after college, where she worked to help brands grow their presence online. Joining Lockton was a pivotal moment in her journey, giving her the chance to craft strategies that elevate Lockton’s voice in the industry. Now, as Senior Social Media Manager, she leads a team dedicated to making Lockton stand out as a trusted leader in the insurance industry. Alongside her work at Lockton, Leanna has built a successful business. Inspired by her family’s history of small business ownership, she founded Mazzeffe’s Screen Printing and Embroidery and later brought on a few family members to handle production. While they focus on bringing designs to life, Leanna works to grow the business and attract new clients. This allows her to build something that reflects her creativity in different ways! To Leanna, trust and support from leadership are what set Lockton apart from its competitors. “The entrepreneurial spirit here allows me to take risks, try new things, and have the freedom to create content that’s authentic to the brand.” This trust has empowered her to make bold decisions, helping her thrive in her role. Leanna has been inspired by the unique opportunities at Lockton to connect with colleagues across the globe. Attending a social media summit in New York City and traveling with the Elite Women Producers to Sedona and Austin have been key highlights, giving her the chance to deepen her expertise. “Collaborating with these incredible women has influenced me to become a strong female leader!” “Lockton’s culture is empowering, collaborative, and driven by a sense of purpose. It’s a place where you can make your mark, surrounded by people who genuinely want to see you succeed.” Leanna’s story is a testament to this supportive and inspiring environment.
