Gallagher Launches New ‘rivals Together’ Rugby Series

Gallagher, insurance broker and title partner of Premiership Rugby, is today launching a new series ‘Rivals Together’.

The series features some of the brightest stars in the Gallagher Premiership, such as Danny Care, Ben Earl and Beno Obano, Rivals Together is part of the Gallagher Leadership series – an initiative launched earlier this year to better understand the challenges facing leaders in business and rugby as well as the importance of having a strong network of trusted advisers to keep performing at the top of your game.

The new three-part series of filmed one-on-one conversations provides rugby fans and business leaders across the country with the inside track on the realities of leadership within the Gallagher Premiership, by bringing together players from some of the greatest rivalries in club rugby.

CEO of Gallagher’s UK Retail business, Michael Rea, said, “Business leaders and professional rugby players share many similarities; often operating under intense scrutiny in high-pressure situations, the need to make good decisions and push to succeed are constants. The survey we undertook to launch the Gallagher Leaders Trust – a mentoring network for directors of rugby and head coaches – revealed the positive impact a diverse and trusted network of external advisers can have on business performance. Seen through the eyes of some of Gallagher Premiership Rugby’s brightest stars, Rivals Together demonstrates the importance of sharing your knowledge and experience of leadership with others, and the lessons you’ve learned along the way.”
