Originally written on We Should Be GM's | Last updated 1/16/13
Once again, Ruben Amaro has made "juan" of the best minor league contract signings of the offseason in the form of relief pitcher Juan Cruz (Juan Pierre in 2012).If Cruz appears in a Phillies uniform during the 2013 season, he will officially become a Phucco (Phillie + Bucco). Last year he was with the Pirates and pitched in 43 games with a 2.78 ERA, although he did have an unsightly 1.63 WHIP. Over his 12 year career, Juan has pitched for the Cubs, Braves, A's, Diamondbacks, Royals, Rays, and with Pittsburgh. The 34 year old right-hander owns a 38-36 record over 447 G, 655 IP, with 659 K, a 4.05 ERA, and 1.40 WHIP. He's an excellent veteran to have in the system should one of the Phillies young bullpen arms falter or become injured.Maybe this is the guy who pushes the team over the 87 win mark that some of our loyal readers think the 2013 squad will eclipse. Ha, ha, ha...that's laughable.

Good shirt but order size bigger than normal.

Seems to run true to size on my other dri fits.
(Posted on 6/20/2013)
Nice shirt. If you want it to fit tight order the size that you are. I wear the Nike Pro Combat shirts for the gym and have to wear one size larger. So I ordered an XL for this shirt and it is too big.

MOON TOWNSHIP, Pa. — It took the Robert Morris University brain trust just one year and a new coach to find out just how valuable Willard's Jimmy Langhurst is to their program.
The sophomore sharpshooter got his chance when head coach Mike Rice took over the Colonials program at the start of the season. It goes without saying the 5-foot-10 guard made the most of the opportunity.
Robert Morris is 6-4 following Monday night's 74-71 win over Youngstown State University.

DALLAS, Jan. 18, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Aprima Electronic Health Record (EHR) has been selected by the Colorado Regional Extension Center (CO-REC) as an approved EHR integration product that "provides everything a physician needs to meet current meaningful use criteria, as well as to be well-positioned for future, more advanced criteria."
(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20110118/LA31043LOGO)
CO-REC is an initiative of six organizations led by CORHIO, the Colorado Regional Health Information Organization. CO-REC's selected vendors have ONC-ATCB certified EHR products that met a series of rigorous technical and cost criteria.
CO-REC and CORHIO developed this list to help physicians find their way through the sometimes frustrating process of vendor and product selection. The organization will also assist physician practices throughout the EHR implementation process.
"There are hundreds of EHR systems to choose from," said CO-REC Director Robyn Leone. "Yet it's not clear exactly how systems compare or what buyers get for their money. Our vendor and product selection process emphasized transparency, accountability and cost containment, so that physicians know what they're buying."
To evaluate EHRs for their approved list, CO-REC incorporated federal standards developed by the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology, then went beyond them. The agency verified that Aprima EHR included all the optimal functions a physician would need, such as being able to integrate lab and hospital data, as well as connect to the CORHIO and Quality Health Network Health Information Exchanges.
Aprima CEO Michael Nissenbaum said, "Aprima has worked hard to stay on top of all the new federal requirements as they emerge. We're pleased to be recognized by CO-REC and look forward to helping more Colorado physicians complete a smooth EHR transition and earn ARRA bonuses."
Regarding the benefits to physicians, Niss

NFL Top Three Over/Under Plays – Week 11
- Updated: November 18, 2011
NFL Top Three Over/Under Plays- Week 11
For the past three weeks in the NFL, the odds makers have been taking it on the chin on the total line with 28 of the 43 games played staying 'under' the total which equates to 65.1 percent of the time. Last week, 10 of the 16 games stayed 'under' the total.
Our 66.7 winning percentage this season remained intact with the correct call on Washington and Miami staying 'under' and New England and New York (Jets) going 'over'. This brings our year-to-date record to 20-10. The following are our top three 'over/under' plays for Week 11 in the NFL. All lines quoted are provided by BetOnline.com.
Carolina Panthers vs. Detroit Lions Over/Under: 47.5
The addition of rookie quarterback Cam Newton may have not led to a bundle of victories for Carolina yet, but its offensive production of 21.1 points a game is a vast improvement from last season. The defense however, still needs some work after giving-up an average of 26.3 points a game so far this year.
Detroit's signal-caller, Matthew Stafford has a broken finger in his throwing hand but it is not expected to affect his ability to throw the ball. The Lions have cooled since a fast 5-0 start, but their offense is still ranked fourth in the NFL in scoring with an average of 28 points a game.
The total has gone 'over' in eight of the Panthers last 12 games as an 'underdog' and in seven of the Lions last 10 games following a straight-up loss.
The Free NFL Pick: OVER
Cincinnati Bengals vs. Baltimore Ravens Over/Under: 41
Another rookie quarterback, Andy Dalton has brought a bunch of wins to Cincinnati with a 6-3 record after nine games. Two of his favorite targets, A.J. Green and Jermaine Gresham are a bit banged-up for this game, but the Bengals can still rely on a defense that is giving-up just 18.2 points a game.
When it comes to defense, Baltimore has written the book on the subject in recent years. This season is no different as the Ravens' defense is ranked near the top of the league in just about every major category including points allowed. It is giving-up an average of just 16.9 points which is third-best in the NFL.
The total in this series has stayed 'under' in the last four meetings in Baltimore and in the last four games overall.
The Free NFL Pick: UNDER
Dallas Cowboys vs. Washington Redskins Over/Under: 41.5
Tony Romo and the Dallas offense put-up 44 points last week against Buffalo and is averaging 24.8 points a game, but with wide receiver Mile Austin still out of the lineup and running backs' Felix Jones and DeMarco Murray listed as questionable with lingering injuries, some of the fire-power may be missing from the Cowboy's attack this Sunday.
It does not matter who is in the lineup for Washington on offense as it flat-out cannot score points. The Redskins have amassed a total of 20 points in their last three games and have not scored more than 20 points in any single game since Week 2 against Arizona.
Head-to-head in this series, the total has stayed 'under' in four of the last five meetings in Washington and in five of the last six games overall.
The Free NFL Pick: UNDER

"It provided a clear direction for growth and a vision for our town," Cunningham said. "The comprehensive zoning plan that followed will direct how and where Bethlehem will grow, and become the pre-eminent community in Tech Valley. '
Cunningham touched on a number of future plans, among them open space preservation, enhanced pedestrian connections, farmland protection, and looking to reduce the cost of government.
He said that in the coming month, "Bethlehem 2020" will be announced, which will involve the formation of a committee to examine how town government must evolve to meet the needs of the community.
Both Cunningham and town board member Sam Messina, who served as master of ceremonies, paid tribute to those who ran and lost.
"There are many ways to serve," Messina said. "Our community is stronger because of your involvement.
"We are 54 square miles and about 34,000 people," Messina said. "We're small, but we have a chance to set an example. If we listen to our conscience, Bethlehem will be a wonderful place to be."
Elected after being appointed to the town board, Joann Dawson was away on vacation. ""

Toxoplasmosis infection during pregnancy can lead to
eye and brain damage in a growing baby (fetus) or
infant. Antibiotic therapy can prevent or reduce these birth defects.
When a
pregnant woman has a toxoplasmosis infection, she is treated with an
antibiotic. This lowers the chances that her fetus
will become infected.
If you are diagnosed with toxoplasmosis
during pregnancy, you will be given spiramycin.1
Spiramycin collects in the
placenta, the site where the Toxoplasma gondii parasites travel to the fetus.
If an
amniocentesis shows that a fetus is infected, giving
the mother a combination of antibiotics lowers the risk of birth defects and
may cure the infection.2 Sulfadiazine plus
pyrimethamine (an antibiotic commonly used for malaria) is sometimes used with
the antibiotic spiramycin.1, 3
A newborn who has
toxoplasmosis needs a year of antibiotics to lower the risk of eye and brain
damage. This treatment is given to the newborn even if the mother was treated
during pregnancy.

A single high dose of the hallucinogen psilocybin, the active ingredient in so-called "magic mushrooms," was enough to bring about a measureable personality change lasting at least a year in nearly 60 percent of the 51 participants in a new study, according to the Johns Hopkins researchers who conducted it.
Lasting change was found in the part of the personality known as openness, which includes traits related to imagination, aesthetics, feelings, abstract ideas and general broad-mindedness. Changes in these traits, measured on a widely used and scientifically validated personality inventory, were larger in magnitude than changes typically observed in healthy adults over decades of life experiences, the scientists say. Researchers in the field say that after the age of 30, personality doesn't usually change significantly.
"Normally, if anything, openness tends to decrease as people get older," says study leader Roland R. Griffiths, a professor of psychiatry and behavioral sciences at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine.
The research, approved by Johns Hopkins' Institutional Review Board, was funded in part by the National Institute on Drug Abuse and published in the Journal of Psychopharmacology.
The study participants completed two to five eight-hour drug sessions, with consecutive sessions separated by at least three weeks. Participants were informed they would receive a "moderate or high dose" of psilocybin during one of their drug sessions, but neither they nor the session monitors knew when.
During each session, participants were encouraged to lie down on a couch, use an eye mask to block external visual distraction, wear headphones through which music was played and focus their attention on their inner experiences.
Personality was assessed at screening, one to two months after each drug session and approximately 14 months after the last drug session. Griffiths says he believes the

Found in what is assumed to be a Dick's Sporting Goods store in the New York/New Jersey area is this display of mannequins dressed as several prominent players from the New York Jets. Most of the team's stars are represented in the display, including Nick Mangold, Santonio Holmes, Bart Scott, Mark "Buttfumble" Sanchez, and Tim Tebow, who is appropriately the only one found riding the pine. Art imitating life and all that. Here's the full display… Hard to tell if the Tim Tebow mannequin opted out of running the wildcat like his real life counterpart allegedly did, because the Rex Ryan mannequin kept leaving the New York Jets display and wandering over to the food court. [@Hochentweet via @darrenrovell] The post Dick's Sporting Goods' Jets display features a benched Tim Tebow mannequin appeared first on Last Angry Fan.

In the field of mass entertainment media, India has shown exponential expansion on all fronts. Bollywood, the largest movie industry of the world second only to its fairer sister counterpart Hollywood, has become an avenue for budding aspirations and inspirations.
TV queen Ekta Kapoor's Balaji Motion Pictures, following consecutive blockbusters at BO with their non-mainstream projects, have been speculating for a while over the establishment of means to further opportunities for fresh talent. Post the widespread acclaim of The Dirty Picture especially, Ekta and Balaji have realized the concept and are all set to conduct an array of short term media courses for the promising youth that regularly enters the city of dreams, Mumbai, in large numbers.
This said venture will be offering 3-6 month courses with hands-on experience and training in fields of editing, writing, direction, sound, recording, cinematography, and production. The span of the courses shall be flexible, depending on the students' abilities to train in these specializations, without jeopardising their parallel years of compulsory education.
In promoting such a process, Ekta and Balaji hope to establish a promising symbiosis between those who seek professional training, and a regular inflow of formally trained talent into the industry.
In a generation of stiff competition, for the entertainment industry to acquire some firm institutionalization sounds like a promising aspect. Here's hoping the targeted youth will make the best of the chance!

 I have been presenting our latest study, "Insurers, intermediaries and interaction" for about half a year now - time to go back and look at some of the things that surface in client discussions or in deeper analysis. (I've written about the study before, here and here, and check here if you prefer an audio overview.) Feedback was generally positive, both from clients and other consultants - ICG in Australia awarded us the "Article of the Month" in the March edition of their Industry Insights Review.

 What findings stuck out? Here some observations.

 - Across countries, the story was remarkably consistent. Of course, specific behaviors (especially on the consumer side) vary from country to country, but even there, the changes from 2010 to 2012 go in the same direction - less search interaction with agents and brokers, more online for an overall equalization of interactions.
 - Interaction generates trust. There was a slight uptick on the question "do you trust the insurance industry?" and in the beginning I was wondering where that came from. It turns out that in all countries that experienced this trust rise, insurers had made an effort to communicate more. Often this was out of necessity, following negative publicity. Imagine how good the industry could be if there was a conscious effort to raise trust, not just in single brands but in the industry overall.
 - Customer centricity as a strategy change is really gaining. Even though I have been pushing this thought for years, I am still amazed (and delighted) on the mindshare that "putting the customer in the middle" has achieved. Now if insurers would actually adapt structures, processes and incentives...

 And now for something completely different.

 A fun thing to do with blogs is to wordle them. Besides being quasi geek art, with a wordle you can find out what the emphasis of a blog over time is. Here is our wordle:

When doing a study, we collect a lot of data. In the study I talked about last week, for example - "Insurers, intermediaries and interactions" - we asked 41 sets of questions in the intermediary questionnaire, and 49 to consumers. Unfortunately, we can't use all of that information in the report, for a variety of reasons. The finding has to be (statistically) significant and it has to be potentially interesting to the readers. And often you have some nuggets of information that are both, but that simply do not fit the narrative of the report.

Fortunately for the poor researcher (i.e. me) there is the blog. So today for some findings that did not make the report, one from each side of the interaction triangle. (You might want to read last weeks post first for context.)

The myth of monetary incentives

Monetary incentives matter, but as behavioral economists have shown repeatedly, they only explain part of economic behavior. Our study is no exception: intermediaries see neither level of commmissions nor the price of the products they advise on or sell as the most important value drivers. That's in the report. What is not (but still interesting) is taking this apart by country and or demographic.

Commissions matter more to captive agents than to brokers or multi-insurance agents (though is it still not #1). And it matters more in some countries than in others. There are exactly two places where both current and future commission levels are the #1 value drivers: Japan and Canada...

The equalization of interactions

The report looks at what interaction points (formerly known as channels) consumer search and buy through. Result: People buy from people, but search via all means available. When looking at how intermediaries interact with their customers, we see a similar picture. Today, it is face-to-face, telephone, email and snail mail (in that order). For the future, intermediaries see "modern" media growing strongly: social media, videoconferencing and instant messaging. Not surprisingly, more successful intermediaries are more forward thinking, with 2-3 times larger decrease in traditional and increase in modern interactions.

The longer you wait, the more you switch

One of the things we examined from several angles was "channel switch" - consumers searching by one or more interaction points, and then buying from an interaction not on the top-3 search list. Additionally, we looked at "company switch", i.e. again people not buying from on of the companies they looked at most.

Roughly 29% of consumers always make those switches, even when there is no time lag between searching and purchasing. The longer they wait, the larger the switch percentage is, though. When the lag is more than a month, switching jumps to 40% (43% company switch, 37% channel switch). Which means, once again: being easier to do business with and faciliting customer decision making will net insurers more sales...
 When doing a study, we collect a lot of data. In the study I talked about last week, for example - "Insurers, intermediaries and interactions" - we asked 41 sets of questions in the intermediary questionnaire, and 49 to consumers.

Ever heard the term 'distribution channel'? Of course you have – channels are the way insurers generally think about how to sell their products to their customers. The problem: customer do not think in channels, at least not anymore. (We could debate if they ever did, but that's a different topic.)

Which is why in our last study, "Powerful interaction points", we suggested saying Goodbye to the channel, and Hello to the concept of interaction points – two-way modes of communication between customer and insurer.

For the new study, published in December 2012, we go one step further. After all, there is a set of special interaction points which account for roughly 60% of worldwide insurance sales by premium: intermediaries. Again, they shouldn't simply be treated as sales channels; customers have become too empowered for that to work well in the mid to long term. "Insurers, intermediaries and interactions" takes a deeper look at the special relationships between insurers, intermediaries and customers. (Take a look at the picture on the top left.)

We surveyed intermediaries and consumers in 17 countries all over the world to get our results. Here some highlights.

Insurer and intermediary as integrated partner

Good intermediaries – those who can make a living for themselves and at the same time benefit the insurers they work for – are scarce. Insurers have always competed for them, but as long as the insurance market was large enough, it wasn't much of an issue.

Not that we have firmly moved to a buyers' market, that has changed. To work with high performing agents and brokers, insurers have to be good partners.

The brokers we surveyed work on average with 7 insurers – but do about half of their business with one most preferred insurers. Intermediaries are looking for speed, flexibility, and better communication from their insurers. The one that does that best becomes most preferred – because that insurer helps the agents and brokers do their job:

Agents and brokers as trusted adviser to their customers

Insurance is complex and a big part of the role of agents and brokers is to advise their customers as to what the right products for their needs are. (In some places, doing that well will be crucial to generating income at all.) That advice will only be accepted if it is good, and with enough trust; with the proliferation of the Internet in all its forms, unreliable information will be quickly found out.

This is where intermediaries can shine. Consumers don't trust the insurance industry, but they do trust other people. (75% trust their adviser.) Additionally, we found a very high correlation between personalized service and customer loyalty – who better than a person to provide personalized service.

The insurer as multi-modal provider

Consumers get their information from a multitude of sources at the same time – they have become multi-modal. With Digital Natives becoming an ever larger percentage of the working and buying population, this will increase even more over time. To adapt, insurers have to become multi-modal, too.

Channel integration (I know, I should call it interaction point integration) is the key here. Where channel integration was high, shoppers were three times as satisfied., and twice as likely to become an advocate of the company they bought from.

By making it hard to switch channels, insurers drive customers away. Customer do not want to be forced to buy where they search. The easier it is to switch interaction points, the less likely they are to switch companies.

As stated, these are highlights. The paper is downloadable from the above link. We have data underpinning each of the points I made above, and some implications and recommendations. Looking forward to hearing your comments. And if you want to learn more, let me know – after all, there were 17 countries in the surveys and I haven't visited all of them yet…

After the preview two weeks ago, I am happy to announce that the new insurance study 2012 has been published and is available online.

We will have a look at some key points in more detail next year, but I don't want to spoil your reading fun, so here just the highlights. We interviewed more than 8,500 consumers and about 1,400 brokers and agents in 17 countries globally. Result: trust is still an issue, and insurers need to improve on the relationships with and among their key stakeholder groups: customers and intermediaries.

- Insurers need to be integrated partners to their intermediaries – focusing on speed and flexibility

- Insurers need to enable their agents to be (resp. to stay) trusted advisers – focusing on quality and reliability

- Insurers need to be multi-modal providers to their customers – focusing on a consistent multi-channel appeal.

As I said, more next year. For now: Happy Holidays!

Our new insurance study will be released next week! Regular readers will remember that I asked for participation a few months back. We'll, we did get some feedback, and I am happy to get the rollout going with a (completely unauthorized  ) sneak peak.

We went to 17 countries globally, surveyed 8592 consumer and 1360 insurance intermediaries – captive and independent – and interviewed a few insurers. You might remember the main questions we have been asking: How will intermediaries fit into the (ever growing) mix of potential interaction points that customers have with their insurers? What value do intermediaries provide? And what value do insurers need to provide to intermediaries?

We see a triangle of relationships here, insurer with intermediary, intermediary with customers, and insurer with customers. All of these relationships need to be redefined if insurers want to be successful going forward – away from a pure channel approach with intermediaries as sellers. People buy from people, after all, but there are still ways to do it better than others.

A sneak peak wouldn't be complete without letting you look at some data. So let's talk about trust.

Trust is at the foundation of all insurance business – insurers don't sell a product, we sell a promise. Recently, trust in the insurance industry hasn't been too enthusiastic – we examined this and wrote about it before. How does that look this time? Check it out:

The good news is that there was a slight uptick in 2012. The bad new is twofold. One, the percentage of people who say they trust the insurance industry is still well below 50%. Remember, we are not asking whether people trust their insurer; beside the fact that you would have to correct for some cognitive biases, you would also expect that customers who don't trust their insurer would already have switched away.

Which brings me the the second part of the bad news:

More than 30% of our respondents switched insurers at least once in the past two years. That is a lot, and it is also a lot more than we saw in the last study on customer interaction.

So what can and should insurers do about it?

How about you tell us in the comments?

On a different note, we are still looking for intermediaries (agents and brokers) to answer the survey for our 2012 insurance study. The US and Australia in particular could use a few more respondents. Give me a shout, and thanks.

According to the Bureau of Labor statistics there were approximately 411,000 insurance agents in the United States in 2010. The Bureau defines an insurance agent as someone who sells "life, property, casualty, health, automotive, or other types of insurance. May refer clients to independent brokers, work as an independent broker, or be employed by an insurance company." The growth of job openings, according to the Bureau, is expected to grow "faster than expected" between 2010 and 2020. The Bureau projects job openings to be around 184,000, and according to them "projected job openings represent openings due to growth and replacement." What? But I thought selling insurance through agents was going to decline? What I take from this is that job openings may be increasing, but my guess is that our ability to attract talent to the industry will remain difficult. Interestingly bank tellers and customer service reps have bright outlooks according to the Bureau's projections in Finance and Insurance, so the need for human interaction in financial transactions will remain. The Bureau defines bright outlook occupations as ones that "are expected to grow rapidly in the next several years, will have large numbers of job openings, or are new and emerging occupations." Other bright outlook occupations outside of finance and insurance are accountants and video game designers.

With all the attention and buzz placed on direct sales and social media, it is easy to forget that, in my opinion, agents are still the most effective way to sell insurance. That's not to say that other sales channels will not take some share from the agent channel. There will of course be a certain segment of the population that will migrate to the more digital, less personal way of doing business. I also agree that the sales process will span more than one touch point e.g., research and information through one channel and complete the sale through another channel.

Who knows how things will turn out in the next 8 years? Will we see consumers use agents the way some consumers use brick and mortar stores to test out electronics? Some consumers go to the store, touch and, feel the product, ask questions, then go online to purchase from a dot.com store at a better price. Will agents be used as a seal of approval for what a customer has already researched? After receiving reassurance that they've picked the right coverage, will they then turn to lower cost channels to complete the sale because that channel can offer a few dollars in savings that an agent cannot match? Will buying insurance be more like online grocery shopping, where, at least in my experience, there are certain food items I feel comfortable purchasing online such as paper goods and dried pasta, but I will always go to a traditional supermarket for other items such as produce and meat. Will consumers get to a point where they will buy certain insurance policies online such as auto, but still rely on an agent for other products, such as life insurance or more complex policies? I don't know, I have an opinion and I'm sure you do too (please leave yours in the comment section, thanks)

There's a lot of attention being paid to the steady increase of direct sales, insurers around the world are trying to figure out how to have all of these channels co-exist peacefully, and they have to deal with a consumer base that wants it all (any where, any time, with a first class shopping experience). There's also the perception (or fact, depending on who you talk to) that agents are going the way of the dinosaur, that it is hard to attract and retain good agents because, lets face it, insurance is a tough sell as a career choice for young adults and many insurers continue to view the agent as their primary customer. With all of these factors, as insurers rightly invest in emerging channels and touch points, let's not forget the base.

Agents are here to stay for the foreseeable future, and if the statistics are to be believed, that job category will grow, at least in the U.S. So how do we support the base? I've been studying U.S. agents for about 5 years and have done a few primary research projects on their satisfaction and how they grow and generate new business in the U.S. My goal in this research was to understand and measure agent value. I'm looking forward to the results from our upcoming IBV study on intermediaries around the world that is being conducted by Christian Bieck.

In this complex sales environment, quality over quantity is key to improving profitability through this channel. We are now able to identify, service and support high performing agents at a specificity that was not possible when I started my research 5 years ago. Given the competition to attract talent to the industry, insurers will have to figure out how to get more sales with less agents, or perhaps make selling insurance as cool as selling an Apple product to attract more people to the industry.
The data and analytics exist to for insurers to gain greater insight into each agent/agency relationship and to design their distribution strategies to account for the increasingly complex sales environment:

1. Value of the Agent relationship: examine the true profitability and potential revenue stream of each agent or agency. This includes but not limited to profitability and revenue analysis.

2. Examine agent behaviors, needs and attitudes that impact the sales engine. This includes key behaviors (win backs, advertising/marketing activities, cross-sell, etc), key needs (IT support, home office support, agency management, etc) and key attitudes (satisfaction with insurer(s), business outlook, reputation, etc).

3. Determine investments and levers that can drive agent value. This has been a primary focus for insurers in the past 18 months, mainly driven by digital support including mobile apps and enhanced agent portals. But this also includes refined campaign and marketing tools and services, collaboration, incentives and commissions schemes to account for the new channel mix for selling, tailored services, real or near-real time access to information, self service, training, and more).

If you are curious about the other job opening projections for the insurance industry in the U.S. they can be found here http://www.onetonline.org/ by selecting the "Finance and Insurance" category. Spoiler alert: Insurance underwriters are expected to grow "slower than average" Claims adjusters, examiners and investigators are expected to grow "slower than average" and actuary job openings are expected to grow faster than average. There's some meaning and connections to technology, data, geographic and demographic trends in these statistics and I look forward to learning more with the upcoming IBV study.

Regular visitors to this blog will have realized by now that I have a mantra: "People buy from people." All the results of our studies, including the experiment I talked about last week, point that way. Not everybody everywhere prefers face-to-face interaction all the time, but even online interaction benefits from a personal touch, from making you feel like a guest to the site instead of a prospect to be relieved of your money. (That reminds me of my favorite quote from the 2008 study "Trust, transparency and technology", from a participant in the London focus group: "an innovative insurer is one that finds new ways to take your money.  )

If insurance interaction is at its best face-to-face and personal, what does that mean for consumer, insurers and for the people who represent that interaction, the intermediaries? What value do intermediaries provide? And what value do insurers need to provide to intermediaries? There are lots of questions to explore in that business triangle, which is what we are doing right now in our IBV Insurance study for 2012. (Again, we will be working with the Institute for Insurance Economics of the University St. Gallen in Switzerland.)

How? We will be surveying consumers and intermediaries per online questionnaire and some insurers per direct interview. In fact, the surveys are starting right now, hence the timing of this post.

Are you a person who sells or gives advice on insurance in one of the countries we are exploring* and would be interested in helping us out? Any intermediary, employed or independent, salaried or on commission, agent, broker or IFA is welcome. The questionnaire takes 20-25 minutes, and there is even something in it for you if you participate. (Some countries will not let me say more here, so I'll just keep up the suspense… )

If you are, just give me a shout directly, and I will send you the link to the survey for your country. And if you are in the insurance part of the triangle, responsible for working with your agents or brokers and would like to chat, that link works for you as well.

And if you just want to know what we found it: I will be writing about results in the fall of this year .

Thanks in advance.

* The countries we are looking for are: Australia, Belgium, Brazil, Canada, China, Germany, India, Japan, Korea, Mexico, the Netherlands, South Africa, Spain, Turkey, the U.K. and the U.S.

Where are all the good guys.....
I am a fun loving girl looking for a great guy. As I am currently in school, as well as working, I don't get a lot of opportunity to meet a lot of guys. I come from a very large family and am very family oriented. One of the highlights of my week is to spend time with the most awesome little man in the world, my nephew. I would like to meet a guy that is fun, honest and values family as much as I do. A guy whose word can be trusted, and that respects and cares about my opinions and feelings. I'm looking for a guy who isn't looking for the bar scene anymore and genuinely is ready to have a grown up relationship. If you are not within the age range I have specified, please don't message me. If you are the kind of guy that believes men and women can't "just be friends", please don't message me. If you are the kind of guy that is looking for someone to get to know and share some time with, to laugh and have fun, drop me a message!! If you are one of the jerks that honestly believes that if you send me an email with disrespectful remarks and suggestions, that I will reply, then you're an idiot and I really don't have time for idiots. I'm not a mean person, so please don't take my previous rant as such!! :)
Coffee and conversation , Dining out , Movies/Videos , Music and concerts , Exploring new areas , Nightclubs/Dancing
Other types of exercise, Running, Weights / Machines
I exercise 5 or more times per week.
I like Dogs
Middle of the Road
I don't necessarily have a "favorite" hotspot. I enjoy going to places I have yet to go.
Some of the things I enjoy doing would be catching a movie, Ranger or Mav game, spending a day at Six Flags, taking a drive to the coast, taking a lazy day every once in a while, boating, jet skiing, and hanging with my family.
I prefer a good movie as I tend to not have enough time to sit down and read a book from cover to cover.
