Deliver on the promise

An unexpected question can produce amusing results, at least initially – and especially if asked in front of a TV camera.

Keeping a promise might seem like an ordinary thing – one of the many tiny pieces that fit together to make up the lives of people and communities. Yet throughout history, keeping promises has helped to strengthen social ties, improve personal reputations and, last but not least, facilitate business. In an industry like insurance, based on long-term relationships, keeping a promise is at the heart of customer relations.
