|
Learning: Unstructured
In this episode of MGAA Conversations, host Jack Harding, Underwriter at Tokio Marine Kiln and Chair of the MGAA Next Generation Committee, explores how emerging talent is shaping the MGA market and the wider insurance industry. He and Mike discuss how the MGAA Next Gen Committee has evolved and why refreshing membership helps keep perspectives sharp and relevant. They also look at the role MGA leaders and sponsors play in supporting Next Gen initiatives, and how the industry can move from people “falling into insurance” to actively choosing it as a career.
They go on to highlight why engagement, development and visibility remain the committee’s core pillars, before sharing an exciting look ahead to 2026. Plans include expanded mentoring, new learning and development events, broader industry collaboration, outreach to schools and universities, and increased support for early‑career professionals across leadership, wellbeing, personal branding and technical capability.
