Gale Hammond Receives Royal Treatment at Royal Neighbors Life Insurance Training Forum

WESLEY CHAPEL, Fla. - July 4, 2015 - PRLog -- Wesley Chapel, FL resident, Gale Hammond, received the “royal treatment” in life insurance and women-empowerment training. Hammond was one of eight women selected from across the nation to participate in Royal Neighbors of America’s womenLEAD Forum at the organization’s headquarters, 230 16^th St., Rock Island, Illinois.

    Royal Neighbors, one of the largest women-led life insurance organizations in the U.S., invited these agents to the forum to provide tools and education to women working in the predominately male insurance industry, as well as provide them a network of resources to further build their careers.

     The womenLEAD Forum is another example of Royal Neighbors’ 120-year commitment to support professional opportunities for women. This year’s program included training about life insurance products, sales concepts, marketing plan development, as well as the organization’s history and philanthropic mission.

    “Royal Neighbors has set the bar so high in the life insurance realm for women to reach higher and strive to be the best they can be,” said Hammond. “It was extremely beneficial and opened my eyes to many areas I can improve.”

    Hammond went on to explain her appreciation of Royal Neighbors.

    “It is a breath of fresh air to work for a company that realizes the value of women and the clients they serve. Royal Neighbors shines so bright in the life insurance field. They truly care about their clients and the communities they live in. Protecting families and individuals is their priority. It is an honor to represent such an ethical, caring and class act company.”
