2021 GAMA Global-Philippines Board
The association of insurance leaders, GAMA International Philippines, salutes the inspiring captains of the industry in the all-virtual “26th GAMA Leaders Convention and Honoring Excellence.”
The awardees, to be virtually feted on June 29, are lauded for their outstanding malleability and excellence, fueling their achievements despite the continuing health crisis.
Since the onset of the pandemic, the awardees have exhibited their winning agility and adaptability to respond to an evolving market’s ever-changing needs. They also learned not just to maximize the effective use of digital technology and the virtual platform, but also to generate the same reskilling and upskilling abilities within their teams.
As a result, new leaders from different generations are being continuously molded to be the next stewards steering the industry to success in the face of unprecedented challenges. Most importantly, the safety and security of every Filipino family are assured in the future as we emerge from this so-called “new normal.”
Malleability to navigate the volatile, uncertain, complex, and ambiguous times, while upholding the highest standards of excellence in their field. These qualities are shortened to the letters “M” and “E”, and comprise this year’s convention theme, “The ME in the New Normal.”
The all-virtual event taking place for two days (June 28 for the Convention Day and June 29 for the Awarding Ceremonies) is the organization’s second event using the virtual platform. This comes a year after its first successful foray into online event presentations.
Bravo to the heroes of the industry and thank you for ensuring the protection of the Filipino people.

GAMA Global-Philippines president
To all our GAMA members and awardees, our warmest congratulations!
Today marks our second year of holding a virtual convention and awarding ceremonies. And every year, they just keep getting better.
This year’s theme is “ME in the New World.” The letter “M” stands for malleable and “E” for Excellent.
What is today’s new world? It is the world of the Digital Age. Everything is online–from our recruitment, to training, to selling and even shopping.
As leaders, we have to be malleable and excellent in the digital age. To be malleable is to adapt without breaking. We can bend but not break. To be excellent is to do extremely good, no matter what the situation is. So let’s all aspire to be malleable and excellent leaders, especially during these challenging times, as we start to learn and navigate the digital ways of running our business.
Our virtual setup will continue as it has become our way of life. So sit back and relax, focus your attention on our esteemed speakers who will share with us some gems of wisdom on how we can improve our leadership skills and character. It has always been our desire to become better leaders and better versions of ourselves. I believe that you will have many “takeaways” from today’s convention.
Tomorrow marks the fulfillment of our hardwork as we receive our awards. Blood, sweat, and tears have been shed all throughout the year to attend to our agents’ needs and to give the best service possible to our valued clients.
Dear leaders, you are so deserving to be given due recognition for your hard work, dedication, and commitment. Congratulations once again, everyone. Keep safe and God bless you all!
