Life insurance companies rely on senior leaders to make effective decisions that add value and advance company goals. It's critical that these leaders have a clear picture of how the company makes money and where they can add value. Successful leaders, especially those without a financial background, need strong financial acumen to excel in their roles. Finance for InsuranceLeaders, a two day, in-person program, clarifies industry-specific financial concepts and helps leaders apply them in their roles. Schedule a session for your company or attend with industry peers.
Finance for Insurance Leaders
The unique elements of a life insurer's financial operations and strategy are complex and difficult to understand, even for successful leaders.

Our dynamic instructor — an expert in insurance finance — comes to your location and engages groups of 10-25 leaders in meaningful, relevant discussion. An open-enrollment session is also available.

What Participants Say
I feel better equipped to follow along with the finance discussions and engage in meaningful dialogue with my internal business clients.
Before this session, I used some of these terms on a daily basis, but it was only after the session that I understood where they came from. It gave me an overall picture of the company.
This session helped me connect the 'why' to the 'what' to have a better understanding of the impact decisions have on our business. I highly recommend this program to all employees.
