  • AIA Vitality ambassadors to support adviser business

    Auckland, 15 June 2021


    AIA NZ is encouraging advisers to share their experiences of the insurer’s flagship program, AIA Vitality, to win a day with one of their ambassadors.

    “There are so many amazing stories out there that bring the AIA Vitality journey to life,” says AIA NZ Chief Partnership Insurance Officer Sam Tremethick. “We know of advisers who have seen significant mental and physical benefits since joining the program, and clients who’ve shared their own positive personal experiences. We’d love to hear more of these, and how together we’re making a difference in people’s lives.”

    The winning advisers will be able to access one of three AIA Vitality ambassadors to support their business for a day, which could involve anything from speaking at a business event, participating in a team activity, to supporting a community project. 

    “I’m looking forward to supporting an adviser’s business in a way that is meaningful to them,” says Ian Jones, former All Black and one of the three AIA Vitality Ambassadors available as part of the competition. “I’m open to chatting at a fundraising dinner, taking a team or clients out for an AIA Vitality-inspired run or walk – and I’m not bad with a club in my hand, so could go a few rounds at a golf day.“

    Dame Valerie Adams also has a vast well of experience she can draw on to share with clients and internal teams, both as a working mum and as one of NZ’s greatest ever athletes. “Sharing my story to help others on their AIA Vitality journey is something that I find really empowering. A healthy lifestyle and taking small steps to achieve greatness is what it’s all about.”   

    Jess Quinn is also delighted to be part of the competition, and is looking forward to sharing her personal story on overcoming adversity, mental health and hardship. “Mental wellbeing is something that so many people struggle with, and needs to be talked about more openly. I’d love the opportunity to chat with your team or clients on the importance of looking after your mental health, as well as adapting to change.”

    Tremethick says “Our AIA Vitality Ambassadors were chosen as they share our dream for New Zealand to be one of the healthiest and best protected nations in the world. Dame Valerie, Ian and Jess provide inspiration to thousands of people across New Zealand as they share their thoughts and advice on how to live healthier, longer, better lives.”

    Entries are open until 9 July 2021, and can be made at https://www.aia.co.nz/en/aia-vitality/bring-us-with-you.html

    The competition came about as a way for AIA NZ to further support advisers’ businesses with a creative concept, while continuing the important health and wellbeing message for all New Zealanders.

    Dame Valerie Adams

    Dame Valerie Adams is one of New Zealand’s greatest ever athletes and one of the all-time best female shot putters globally, with a personal best throw of 21.24 metres.

    She first broke into the international scene in 2001 by winning the world youth title and went on to win the world junior title the following year; this was followed by 56 consecutive competition wins. She competed in her fourth Olympic Games in 2016, having won gold in Beijing 2008 and London 2012. In 2018, Dame Valerie inspired the nation by returning to compete less than six months after the birth of her first child at the 2018 Commonwealth Games on the Gold Coast, bringing home silver.

    In 2016, Valerie was appointed as a Dame of the New Zealand Order of Merit. She is married, is a mother of two young children and fluent in four languages.

    Jess's social media following has grown to 175,000 followers which is a true testament to her honesty and raw storytelling. She can spark thought-provoking conversations with her online community. Along this inspiring pathway, Jess has been able to join forces with brand partners like AIA Vitality who celebrate and support improving mental health and wellbeing.
