AIA-INSEAD programme strengthens agency leadership pipeline

The new training model targets leadership capacity across Singapore advisory teams.

AIA Singapore has partnered INSEAD to launch the AIA-INSEAD Executive Agency Leadership Programme for high-potential leaders from AIA Singapore and AIA Financial Advisers, according to a press release.

Co-designed with INSEAD, the programme focuses on strategic leadership, business planning, sales productivity, and scalable agency systems to support long-term growth.

It also aims to equip leaders with entrepreneurial, innovative, and customer-focused capabilities, whilst addressing technological change, evolving customer expectations, and increasing complexity in the financial advisory sector.

Participants who complete the programme will receive a co-branded AIA-INSEAD certification.

AIA said the initiative forms part of its leadership development framework for its distribution force, alongside IBF Level 1 certification—an in-house leadership programme for new leaders—and a Wealth Management Institute partnership for high-net-worth managers.

Alvin Fu, Chief Distribution Officer at AIA Singapore, said the company is focused on long-term leadership development within its distribution force.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
