MDRT Global Services Culture of Excellence Award
With the MDRT Global Services pilot programme underway as the newest addition to the MDRT Family of Brands, members of this unique association are actively honing their leadership skills and establishing an MDRT culture of excellence within their agencies. The Culture of Excellence Awards provide a framework for measuring success within MDRT Global Services, evaluating applicants according to an agency scorecard, which was developed following extensive research into key benchmarks for agency success.
The benchmarks identify six key aspects of successful agencies, including promotion, retention, recruitment, persistency, Whole Person, and membership in MDRT's Family of Brands – aspects which set the requirements for award qualification. To qualify for the Gold, Platinum and Diamond awards, agency leaders must meet three, four or five of the following criteria, respectively:
- Production: 25% increase in production year-over-year
- Retention: 75% annual retention
- Recruitment: 20% annual agency recruitment rate
- Persistency: 13-month persistency rate of 90%
- Whole Person: Agency community involvement, MDRT Global Services Learning Engagement score (measured by attendance at webcasts, Annual Meeting/Global Conference, and completion of assigned modules in Harvard ManageMentor)
- Membership in MDRT Family of Brands: 100% of agents must be members of MDRT or the MDRT Academy.
MDRT Global Services Culture of Excellence Awards applications will be accepted between January and March of 2023, with winners announced in May 2023 and honoured at a special awards ceremony at the MDRT Annual Meeting and MDRT Global Conference.
