Mark Bertolini

Mark Bertolini, CEO of Aetna, shared his vision for Aetna. Bertolini envisioned Aetna as an inclusive organization that works to strengthen Aetna via diversity. Diversity produces unique product offerings for the market. Historically, the Human Rights Campaign (HRC) Foundation rated Aetna with the highest possible Corporate Equality Index (CEI). America understands the importance of CEI as a national metric. The CEI represents a company’s ability to support lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) business procedures, benefits, and. Being the only ever health insurance company to achieve perfect results, represents a milestone for Aetna. The National Association for Female Executives (NAFE) invited Aetna into the Hall of Fame for being an excellent company offering executive positions to women. These landmarks of inclusion represent the success Aetna has seen in diversity. Diversity ensures Aetna thinks more abstractly and provides creative solutions. The ultimate goal of Aetna is to create a healthier world.
