The source of this article is the company he left (Fireman’s Fund). Usually, they won’t say why anyone in upper management leaves unless it’s for retirement.
Actually they most always say the reason but in very general terms (i.e. – personal reasons, retirement, etc.) The fact that the reason is silent, indicates to me that there is a much larger story behind this.
The article states that:Beneducci, who had been with the company for nine years, left “for career and personal reasons,” Fireman’s Fund spokeswoman Susan Murdy told the San Francisco Business Times. “It was his decision.”
For what it worth, he was strong supporter for a Federal Charter. It may be that the other senior officers had a different viewpoint.
ANY ONE OUT THERE KNOW IF F.F. USES ANY OUTSIDE LOSS CONTROL SERVICES LIKE THEY USE TO IN THE OLD DAYS AND IF SO, WHAT THE LOSS CONTROL MANAGERS E-MAIL ADDRESS IS?
I don’t think he went anywhere yet.
The Federal Charter issue would be way down the list of reasons.
The steps toward melding parts of Allianz and FFIC together in numerous ways is an issue for long time P&C (Joe) and long time Life (Chuck)leaders and there were some conflicts on how to do that and to what degree.
The culture of FFIC and the developing combined companies caused significant friction.
The loss of a signficant business unit to a strong competitor in the two weeks preceding Joe’s departure likely caused friction.
Is the Fund using any outside Loss Control Vendors to farm out any of their Comm’l Lines Loss Control Work? If so, could you have a Loss Control Mgr. contact me?
Anyone know if he went to another company?
B”H
Usually an article like this would give a reason he left… Does anyone know?
Maybe he finally got fed up with White collar work and moved to Cabo and opened a bar.
It did wonders for Sammy Hagar’s career!
He could call it Fundo Wundo :)

What was the significant business unit that was lost to a competitor?
I thought you should have won Flavor of Love II.
It was a group of leaders from their Specialty business unit.
Musta missed the announcment on this one. Who left — and where did they go?
To Nebraska…I dropped out of Flavor of Love….think about it – Insurance versus Flavor Flav….I choose Insurance.
David Lungrend formerly of Fireman’s Fund will be on the all male Flavor of Love
Joe was one of the few leaders who knew how to communicate. Staff here are lost, sort of adrift….
Any word on where he went
