In today’s episode, host John Laurito is joined by MassMutual Carolinas’ President Tim Flanagan and MassMutual Carolinas’ Director of Advisor Experience Amanda Kramer. They share their experience as leaders of one of the Best Life Insurance companies of 2021. They also talk about what it’s like to work in a company with a strong culture for its leaders and people.

As a third-generation leader in MassMutual, Tim Flanagan is dedicated to leading the team in creating healthy practices while achieving their vision of success and balance in all aspects of their lives.

What Tim cherishes most at MassMutual Carolinas is the daily opportunity to work with a group of people who are so passionate and caring about making a difference in peoples’ lives. They are a relationship-driven organization, and it shows. They have unique and servant leaders who focus on a dynamic and comprehensive planning process grounded in their core values of balance, growth, authenticity, conviction, and stewardship.

Building a culture of community is Amanda Kramer’s calling. She strives to sustain high-trust relationships that help her influence change and challenge the status quo on how shared experiences drive those around her to make an impact - personally or professionally.

With a passion for integrating stewardship, you'll find her in a pack - either of dogs or humans. Volunteering her time in the community as a puppy raiser for future guide dogs brings her an immense sense of gratitude. And, she is brightened to give back in this uncommon but meaningful way.
