Online resources: By April 2009, Hollard Insurance had been in Arcadia, its new building, for a little over three years. A key motive behind the move had been to draw all Hollard employees together, so as to sustain and reinforce a common culture and facilitate communication across business units. Now, Hollard's CEO, Nic Kohler, had a few things to consider: had the new building had an impact on Hollard's culture, and on balance; had this been positive; and should he now move the company's call centres to a smaller town, where competition for talent would be less intense?
