IIS Announces 2024 RGA Leaders of Tomorrow Finalists: Industry’s Rising Stars Address Leadership, Financial Literacy, and the Protection Gap

Business Wire

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
The International Insurance Society (IIS) has announced the finalists for the 2024 RGA Leaders of Tomorrow award, representing a global cohort of mentees who have demonstrated exceptional leadership potential.

Mentees authored original research on critical topics affecting the insurance and risk management sectors. A panel of seasoned insurance executives evaluated the mentees’ work, recognizing those who presented the most practical and innovative solutions.

The 2024 finalists are as follows:

  • Annie Nhat Anh Tran, MSIG Asia. Tran’s research explores how courageous leadership is the key to unlocking growth in emerging markets.
  • Beth Carter, Protective Life Insurance. Carter extolls the cascading benefits of improving financial literacy.
  • Kyeonghwa Kim, RGA. Kim examines opportunities for innovation that address the protection gap in aging societies.

While all mentees in the RGA Leaders of Tomorrow program are considered promising future leaders, the three finalists will participate in a special panel session at the IIS Global Insurance Forum on Nov. 18 in Miami. One finalist will be named the 2024 RGA Leaders of Tomorrow award winner at the event.

Reinsurance Group of America, Incorporated (RGA), a leading global life and health reinsurer, is a 2024 Global Insurance Forum Gold Partner and the sponsor of the RGA Leaders of Tomorrow. This year marks the 10-year anniversary of the mentorship program, which is designed to nurture and inspire the next generation of insurance professionals who have demonstrated executive leadership potential.

“For the past decade, the RGA Leaders of Tomorrow program has recognized exceptional individuals who are shaping the future of our industry with their innovative thinking,” said Josh Landau, President of IIS. He added, "We value our long-standing partnership with RGA and applaud their commitment to fostering leadership that sets the stage for a more sustainable future.”

Since its inception 10 years ago, the RGA Leaders of Tomorrow program has mentored 86 participants from 17 countries. Past participants continue to drive the industry forward as changemakers who are making significant contributions to solving global challenges, driving innovation, and fostering inclusive growth.

The Global Insurance Forum runs Nov. 17-19 at the Hyatt Regency Miami. This year’s event marks the 60th installment and celebrates the 10-year anniversary of the RGA Leaders of Tomorrow program.
