Regional Meetings

Your Dallas/Fort Worth colleagues from the Council on Employee Benefits (CEB) are coordinating a regional meeting. It's well overdue for our area and it's also been quite some time since some of us have connected. As many of you know, these meetings provide us an opportunity to get together and share best practices and ideas.

The meeting will be held on October 5th from 8:30 until 11:30 with a light breakfast provided at 8:00 for everyone.

The address is:
Fluor Corporation
6700 Las Colinas Blvd
Irving, TX 75039

As those of you who have attended previous CEB events know, the conversation and topics can be fluid. Please let me know if there are specific topics you would like to cover, but we always seem to have plenty to talk about! To start the discussion off, we have the following topics:

• ABA Therapy & National Mental Health Parity
• Transgender policies/coverage
• Student Loan payment benefits
• PTO/Vacation Donation policies/payout at separation
• ACO's
• Narrow Networks
• CEB Update

If you are interested in attending or have staff in these locations who might benefit from attending, please contact us at CEB and we'll help connect you to the right people!

New CEB Executive Director

We are pleased to announce the appointment of Bob Arthur as CEB's new Executive Director.

Bob is currently Vice President, Global Benefits for Pearson in New York, where he is responsible for benefits strategy, design, financing and administration for 40,000 employees in more than 70 countries. He is also a member of CEB�s Board of Trustees and a former president of CEB.

Prior to Bob's fourteen-year tenure at Pearson, he held employee benefits, human resources and HRIS roles at other large U.S. companies. With more than 25 years of employee benefits experience, Bob has a deep understanding of the challenges and issues we CEB members face every day. In addition, Bob's enormous passion for CEB combined with his business and leadership acumen will serve him well as he leads CEB through a period of innovation and transformation.

Bob is currently in the process of his transition including relocation to Washington, DC. We expect he will be working full-time at CEB headquarters in early August. Jill Youman will stay on as CEB's Interim Executive Director throughout Bob's transition and then will leave her role when Bob begins working in Washington.
