SINGAPORE - Media OutReach Newswire - 16 September 2024 - Building on its launch last year, the Allianz Pinnacle Excellence Program continues its transformative journey in collaboration with INSEAD, one of the world's top business schools. This initiative empowers Allianz's agency force by delivering a world-class certification program - setting a new industry benchmark for excellence.
The selection process for the program was highly competitive, with over 200 top-performing agents from seven markets across Asia chosen based on rigorous performance criteria. The cohort comprises a diverse mix of new and seasoned agency leaders and agents, with the program co-designed and tailored to meet the unique needs of each segment within the agency force.
Structured around four core modules - Communications, Customer Psychology, Leadership, and Entrepreneurial Mindset & Strategies, the program ensures participants can directly apply their learnings through Action Learning Projects, which are critical for program completion and professional growth. Graduates are encouraged to share best practices with their teams, compounding the impact of their training.
The six-month program will commence with a two-day, in-person session at the INSEAD Asia Campus in Singapore and conclude with a graduation ceremony at the same location in February 2025.
Mohit Bahoria, Regional Chief Agency, Digital Distribution and Marketing Officer, said, "The Pinnacle Excellence Program exemplifies Allianz's commitment to equipping our agents with future-ready expertise, preparing them to excel in an evolving insurance landscape. Through this initiative, we are not only strengthening our distribution network but also ensuring that our customers receive best-in-class service."
James Costantini, Senior Affiliate Professor of Strategy, INSEAD, and Program Director of the Allianz Pinnacle Excellence Program, added, "The program's learning journey is carefully designed to support top agents reach towards their pinnacle by placing emphasis on integrating academic insights and leading practitioners' experiences to shape practices through application of learnings. In the first module, we focus on the science of what drives influence and communications' impact, understanding of how this is critical for agents, and how to bring into practice."
