Insurance is as sexy as you make it only to the limit regulations will allow. Remove all the red-tape and see more innovation and creativity emerge. It’s not a coincidence that the insurance industry is one of the most heavily regulated industries and also one of the most heavily criticized for lack of innovation.
“black swans”— “domino chain”. More nonsense from the business schools whose primary duty seems to be coming up with buzz words (especially using nouns as verbs) and catch phrases to make the wing tip weenies in the boardroom who spend $50,00 on MBA tuition sound like like they know something we don’t:
“We’ll need to do some tent-building because this is a wedge issue that will affect our front-facing relationships – not to mention the benchmarks and metrics {ho-HO}. Let’s get on-calendar and team before we tool-it-up. We don’t want a mining-expedition, but it is a tough-space. We do need-to-get-our-nose-under-the-tent before we reach-out or we’re likely out-of-pocket.”
(Career Tip – When they talk like this, remember to nod your head enthusiastically)
I am so happy I haven’t heard those words in that order in person. I don’t think I could have nodded enthusiastically while I was rolling on the floor laughing. :D
Whenever I think of the insurance industry, and its perception, I think of a quote from the 80s movie “Weird Science” by John Hughes “Lisa – that girl could have fun at an insurance seminar”…
Let’s drop off the “sexy” and use more appropriate adjectives, such as ethical, professional, consistent, trustworthy and those suggested by seriousagent. Intoducing “sexy” into the workplace is just going to result in a lot more claims of discrimination, harrassment and the like.
Sexy does not equal creative. Creative does not equal sexy. Sex is selling a lot of stuff these days – now insurance too? Those sexy lawsuits and sexy policies are the best!
Anyone see the movie Cedar Rapids – now that was definitely sexy insurance…

Sexy as in putting lipstick on a pig?

How about being Honest and noble and integrity and guts instead

Hey, at least the brokers and agents are sexy.
