Manulife Asia has secured a three-year exclusive premier sponsorship agreement with the Million Dollar Round Table (MDRT), marking a significant commercial initiative to enhance its agency force and accelerate growth in the region. MDRT, a prestigious global association for top-performing insurance and financial professionals, will collaborate with Manulife to provide agents with essential tools and training to advance their careers.
As part of this partnership, Manulife aims to professionalize and develop its agency force through a series of tailored programs, including workshops, mentorship, and specialized learning resources. This initiative is designed to ensure that Manulife’s agents, from newcomers to senior leaders, receive the knowledge and support needed to deliver high-quality, customer-focused service. Manulife, which ranked third globally in MDRT membership in 2023, is poised to solidify its leadership in the life insurance and financial services sector.
In addition to its broader regional efforts, Manulife Philippines has launched the “League of Extraordinary Advisors Program” (LEAP) to support local agents with advanced coaching and career development, including opportunities to join the prestigious MDRT ranks. This initiative is part of a broader strategy to nurture top-tier talent, complemented by Manulife’s proprietary Manulife Pro program, aimed at recognizing and motivating exceptional agents across Asia.
The partnership with MDRT aligns with Manulife’s strategy to expand its presence in Asia, attract and retain top talent, and enhance the quality of its customer service through a well-trained, digitally-savvy agency force. The program is expected to strengthen Manulife’s competitive edge as it continues to prioritize customer needs and drive sustainable growth in the region.
