Kirsty Young's castaway this week is the business woman, Inga Beale.

She has been the CEO of Lloyd's of London since January 2014 and was the first woman to hold the post in the 325 years since the insurer was founded in 1688.

She is the middle child of a Norwegian mother and an English father and grew up in Newbury, Berkshire. Her career in insurance began in London in the early 1980s, but she tired of the predominantly male culture of the industry and left the City in 1989 to go travelling for a year. On her return she worked for the Prudential and then for GE Solutions, the insurance arm of General Electrics, where the work took her abroad.

She left GE in 2006 to turn around a failing Swiss company, before joining the Zurich Insurance Group. Her last role before joining Lloyd's as CEO in 2014 was as chief executive of Canopius, a privately held Lloyd's insurer.

In 2015, she topped a power list of the world's leading 100 LGBT executives. She is openly bisexual after coming out in 2008 and has been married to her husband since 2013.



商界女性英格-比厄

她自2014年1月起担任伦敦劳合社的首席执行官，是该保险公司自1688年成立以来的325年中第一位担任该职务的女性。

她是挪威母亲和英国父亲的中间孩子，在伯克郡的纽伯里长大。她的保险事业于20世纪80年代初在伦敦开始，但她厌倦了这个行业以男性为主的文化，于1989年离开伦敦，去旅行了一年。回来后，她为保诚公司工作，然后为通用电气公司的保险部门GE Solutions工作，工作地点在国外。

她于2006年离开通用电气，在加入苏黎世保险集团之前，曾在一家濒临倒闭的瑞士公司工作。在2014年加入劳合社担任首席执行官之前，她的最后一个职务是担任私营劳合社保险公司Canopius的首席执行官。

2015年，她在全球领先的100名LGBT高管的权力榜上名列前茅。她在2008年出柜后是公开的双性恋者，自2013年起与丈夫结婚。
