The Aviva Future Leader programme is a practical and business focussed learning programme aimed at select individuals from key independent brokers who have the potential to be the principals of the future.

Our learning and development team, in conjunction with programme partner Andrew Scott Business Consultancy, specialise in delivering learning solutions for you and your business.

With their detailed understanding of the insurance market and by working with both experts and independent broker businesses, they have identified the key skills needed to successfully run a broker business.

We’ve created the Aviva Future Leader programme with a variety of topics designed to reflect those key areas. The programme covers the essential knowledge and skills required to run an independent broker business. From work essentials such as Financial Planning, HR and Legal through to Strategic Development and Business Optimisation.

The Programme is designed to:

• Cultivate a solid understanding of the key challenges faced by independent brokers
• Develop skills and behaviours of delegates enabling them to create and grow effective teams & businesses
• Expand knowledge of managing key strategic relationships inside and outside the boardroom
• Strengthen the independent broker community by supporting delegates and their businesses to grow and develop
• Create the next group of future leaders within the industry

The Future Leader Programme is designed to be the ultimate investment in you and your business.

Some of the industry's best names are committed to helping our delegates feel boardroom ready and the course covers everything you need to know to run a successful insurance business.

Bi-monthly workshops are run over two days and alongside the workshops there are also external learning tasks that the delegates work on as part of being on the programme.

The twelve workshops are run in venues all around the U.K. We make the most of industry events when possible (including BIBA) and visit some of our Aviva locations such as The Digital Garage in London.

The Aviva Future Leader programme is not only a chance for delegates to learn new things and develop their skills, but also to build a network of contacts, with like-minded individuals, from brokers across the UK.

Topics include:

• You as a Broker Leader
• Regulation & Compliance
• Strategic Development
• Business Planning
• Financial Planning/Acumen
• HR, Legal
• Business Optimisation/Systems Thinking
• Thought Leadership
• People Leadership
• Relationship Management

The Aviva Future Leader Programme runs annually every January for a period of two years. It is designed for individuals from independent brokers who have been earmarked to lead the business in the next 5 to 10 years. It prepares you to step up within the boardroom.

To ensure each delegate gets the support they need, our yearly selection process is limited to 20 places per cohort. We are committed to supporting our key broker relationships and aligning with businesses that share our values.

Applications for the following year course can be submitted between July and September. You can submit an application yourself or an application can be proposed by a business for an employee.
