INSURANCE NEWSCAST
th Annual Report of the “INSURANCE INDUSTRY 100 MOST POWERFUL (NORTH AMERICA)” LIST
01/09/06 -- "InsuranceBroadcasting.com is pleased to announce our 5th annual list of the 100 most powerful people in the insurance industry (North America)" commented Walter B. Podgurski, CEO.
"We understand the subjectivity of this type of ranking, but stand by our five year premise. The people below are the 100 we think who have the most resources available to them and who would have the most ability (as a group) to successfully accomplish any goal or directive of the insurance industry. What better list of 100 people exists that could exert more collective influence over the insurance industry?"
We have a simple methodology of measuring power. This is not a list of the largest 100 insurance company CEO's, or designed to recognize past achievement, longevity, or decide who is the most effective businessperson, or determine who has been the most innovative, or who is on the fast-track to the top. It is an attempt to express who controls the most insurance industry resources (people, capital, intellectual knowledge, technology, etc.) or has the most influence on those resources.
Here is the methodology we chose to support our choices.
* The person with the most power is the person at the top of the organization.
* Power is diverse.
* Power controls or influences resources.
* Our list is weighted by current control of power.
Each year we receive a certain amount of criticism and critique. In an industry as large and segmented as the insurance industry, 100 people is an incredibly small number of people to single out and recognize, ensuring at least some degree of debate.
We publish this list to provoke thinking and discussion, and to provide a better perspective on our industry. It is a serious list, but it shouldn't be taken that seriously. We do take pride in our annual list and are honored to name these people to our list of the 100 most powerful.
As we mention each year, it is important to note that no one asked to be on the list, and many might even be a bit uncomfortable to be on a "power" list. The term "power" in today's society can make people uncomfortable, with words like leadership or stewardship preferred. My personal belief is that the people on this list would be the first to give credit to others. Most likely they have worked hard and have great integrity and management skills, and the reason they have power is that they have been given that power by others because they are "trusted." I believe they believe that their power is a reflection of the confidence and faith others have in them, and their power is viewed by them as a guardianship, duty and charge to serve others.
We received many nominations of people with great credentials that we were just unable to fit onto a list of only 100. The difficulty is easily understood by asking yourself who you would remove from the list below to add your favorite. We also have categorized the names to look at who was selected from a specific niche of the insurance industry. The names are listed alphabetically within each category. No effort was made to rank the list as #1, #3, etc.
Let us know what you think (wpodgurski@aol.com) - we will report back all the comments, good or bad, in a future edition of INSURANCE NEWSCAST.

The Guardian Life Insurance Company of America (GLICOA) is a Fortune 1000 company founded in 1860 in New York, New York. It is the fourth largest mutual life insurance company in the United States of America.
[edit] Current Business
Guardian has more than 5000 employees and more than 2,900 financial representatives, working through 12 affiliate companies and subsidiaries. Guardian has nearly three million customers who hold the company's individual life and disability income insurance and investments products (such as variable annuities, mutual funds, stocks and bonds). It also has another five million customers covered by its employee benefits, including life, health and dental insurance; pension plans; and 401(k) products. For the fiscal year 2005, the company reported $7.4 billion in sales and $24.8 billion in assets.
[edit] History
Guardian founder Hugo Wesendonck, a German civil rights lawyer, participated in the 1848-49 revolution and helped draft a constitution for a united Germany. Accused of treason, he fled post-revolution Europe and landed in the U.S. With start-up funds from fellow German refugees, he opened Germania Life Insurance Company in 1860 on Wall Street in New York, to cover the growing number of German immigrants arriving on American shores. Two years later, he opened a branch in San Francisco and, later, across the country, reaching territories like Colorado, New Mexico and the Dakotas.
In 1911 the company set up headquarters in New York City's Union Square. In 1917, the company changed its name to Guardian, in response to a break with the fatherland after WWI. In 1999 Guardian relocated back to the Wall Street area (7 Hanover Square), after branching out into financial services.
