“The people of National Life give spirit and soul to this 172 year-old company.”
That’s how Mehran started a conversation on the syndicated radio program he recently appeared on, The CEO Show.
While having a CEO who uses terms “spirit” and “soul” when talking about the company sets us apart, Mehran spoke about another thing that helps us stand out in a sea of sameness:
“We may be 172 years old, but we are not a ‘sleepy mutual.’ We are a Progressive Mutual—mission driven, purposeful, but also have a resilient balance sheet and have stood the test of time.”
Our agility and perseverance during the pandemic are examples of how we roll:
“As a mission driven and purposeful company, we didn’t take a day off. During the pandemic, we doubled down.”
That dedication to our cause paid off:
“We did not stop pursuing our goal of serving the most underserved segment of the market, and that is why we have had the best half in the history of our company in 2021.”
In the end, it is all about bringing peace of mind to the middle market, the most underserved segment:
“When we talk about serving this market, that doesn’t mean that we don’t care about the balance sheet of the company. Sitting behind the promises we make to our clients is the financial health of National Life, because we have to fulfill those promises 20, 30, 40, 80 years from now.”
