With recent regulatory scandals having harmed the insurance industry's reputation, the new president of the National Association of Professional Insurance Agents believes one solution is to raise the independent agent's profile.
Donna Pile–the first female president of the Alexandria, Va.-headquartered PIA–plans to do a lot of traveling and hold meetings with agents and carriers during her one-year term as president, which began Oct. 1.
Foremost on her itinerary will be seeking ways to raise the stature of independent agents in the carrier community while also translating the good will customers hold for their individual agents into a better reputation for the overall industry.
