AIG appoints new CHRO to lead strategy, tackle complex matters

American International Group (AIG) has appointed its deputy general counsel to lead its global human resources strategy and help tackle complex matters.

Rose Marie Glazer (pictured) will serve as executive vice president and chief human resources officer, effective January 1, 2022. She will report to Peter Zaffino, president and chief executive officer, and will join AIG’s executive leadership team.

Glazer has served as deputy general counsel and corporate secretary at AIG since March 2017, a role in which she has led the securities, capital markets, mergers and acquisitions, corporate governance, real estate, and intellectual property legal teams as well as the sustainability office for AIG. She will continue to serve as chair of the AIG Foundation and oversee AIG’s Global Citizenship Team and will remain AIG’s corporate secretary until a successor is named.

Before joining AIG, Glazer served in multiple leadership roles in the legal affairs team at Siemens AG, including as senior vice president and general counsel – Americas from 2011 to 2017. Prior to her 14-year career at Siemens, Glazer was vice president and general counsel at Telvista and held in-house counsel positions at Allied Riser Communications and American Airlines.

Zaffino said: “Since joining AIG almost five years ago, Rose Marie has added tremendous value in her role as a Deputy General Counsel and the Corporate Secretary to the company and its Board of Directors. As we continue to build momentum on our journey to become a top performing company, it is critical that we invest in a diverse team with the expertise to tackle complex matters. Rose Marie is a consummate team player and proven leader, and her deep knowledge of the company and our culture make her ideally suited to lead our global Human Resources team during this pivotal time. I look forward to continue working closely with Rose Marie as we build on our achievements and keep shaping AIG into a global industry leader.”

Glazer commented: “At the heart of AIG’s significant turnaround has been its people, and their steadfast dedication to excellence in all that we do. I have been honored to work with many remarkable colleagues from around the world and am grateful to Peter for giving me this opportunity and for the confidence he has placed in me to lead our global Human Resources strategy. As we look to the future, a significant priority will be to ensure AIG remains an attractive, inclusive destination for cultivating the best talent, and an organisation that leads by example as an ally that values, supports and embraces our colleagues and global communities.”
