This Quarter’s Topic: Is This Black Mirror?

When an employee brings wearable tech into the office or deploys an AI assistant on a client call, the implications extend far beyond convenience. Organizations are increasingly grappling with questions about data security, confidentiality, and employee privacy. The challenge is balancing the undeniable benefits of these tools with the hidden risks they introduce. A single oversight in policy or practice can lead to compromised data, strained client trust, and unexpected liabilities.

This session cuts through the speculation with practical, plain-English guidance you can put to work immediately.

Why This Matters Now

Technology is evolving faster than most workplace policies. As employees increasingly adopt new tools to boost productivity, organizations that lack clear, consistent guidelines face increased exposure. The risks aren’t just legal — they threaten the very foundation of trust you’ve built with your clients and team.

At LP Insurance, we believe protection starts with preparation. As an employee-owned company serving our communities since 1927, we know that relationships come first. This Coffee Talk gives you the tools to respond to technological shifts with confidence, ensuring your organization remains secure and compliant.
