The public health crisis, economic downturn, a surge of racial tensions…2020 has been crisis upon crisis. Nothing this year is going according to last year’s expectations. It’s been a year of virtual meetings, agility and resilience and it’s times like these when you truly understand how brand strength is born of corporate culture.
Aflac has routinely made Fortune’s lists of World’s Most Admired Companies; Points of Light’s Most Community-Minded Companies; Ethisphere’s World’s Most Ethical Companies. These accolades are a reflection of the compassion and care demonstrated by Aflac employees. In fact, our employees and sales agents donate millions annually to fund treatment and research in childhood cancer — in crisis, they rise to the challenge. Always.
