Learning & Development

The Tokio Marine Management Associates Program (MAP)

The Tokio Marine Management Associates Program (MAP) is a 24-month development program in which associates are moved through a customized, rigorous, and performance-focused rotation schedule across Group companies.

At the end of the 24 months, the expectation is that MAP participants are subject matter experts in their functional insurance discipline and also in Tokio Marine’s global business approach and the Good Company vision.

In preparation for the first functional rotations, participants engage in a two-week orientation focused on synthesizing the Good Company philosophy including Tokio Marine’s emphasis on corporate social responsibility and diversity. This orientation supports and prepares MAP participants for upcoming rotations, challenging projects, and global work through learning and exploration in emotional intelligence, Tokio Marine’s global business model, and business and insurance acumen.

The program also includes full functional-area rotations designed to build skills and increase awareness of the Tokio Marine global brand. TM Kiln, Houston Casualty Company, and PURE Insurance are some of the Group Companies where participants are currently placed on rotation.

A professional mentor/advisor supports participants through the experience by providing performance feedback, professional development, and development planning.

The outcome of MAP and its experiential learning approach is that successful participants may be offered placement as full-time associates at one of our global companies.

Middle Global Leadership Development Program (MGL)

On a yearly basis Tokio Marine Holdings, Group Talent Division welcomes around 25 participants from group companies from around the world to participate in the Middle Global Leadership Development Program (MGL).

In order to help participants understand the Good Company vision in practice the training begins with a trip to Tohoku in the north of Japan to see the ongoing reconstruction efforts still in progress since the Great East Japan Earthquake and Tsunami (March 11th, 2011), and also to meet with insurance agents and staff who were there for support following the disaster.

Participants return to Tokyo to meet with Senior Executives and get further insight into the Good Company vision. Participants are then challenged to work together to conclude their week by making presentations to a number of senior executives.

Through this program, participants develop a greater understanding of the Tokio Marine Group, its roots within Japan, the current global organization, and the Group’s strategic direction. Most importantly, they can build networks with their colleagues from around the world.

Emerging Leaders Program

Tokio Marine Group continues to increase sustainable growth potential by establishing a solid business platform. As a growing global insurance leader, part of this business platform is to acquire the best talent to serve as the driving force of our value creation. One way this is accomplished is through a mid-level leadership program: The Emerging Leaders Program.

On an annual basis, the Emerging Leaders Program involves three off-site events in the United States with more than 50 participants from Tokio Marine Group companies worldwide. Four to five participants from one Tokio company make up a team. They are tasked with implementing a business process improvement or strategy project for their company. Besides adding value to their respective companies through their project, each person also has the opportunity to grow within the extensive Tokio Marine Group global network.

Participants selected for the program range in level from senior individual contributors to the assistant vice president level. The program focuses on enhancing organizational savvy, communication skills, strategic thinking, teamwork, and initiative. In addition, teams receive guidance from program alumni who serve as mentors, which provides further opportunities for individual development and organic business synergies. The program finale requires each team to present its project to Tokio Marine CEOs and C-level executives across the Americas.
