REGINALD TURNBULL
Insurance broker
TURNBULL-WHITAKER INSURANCE
Age: 24 Years in insurance: 3
Introduced to the industry by his father, Reginald Turnbull switched his career from broadcasting to insurance after the amount of human contact changed his perspective on the industry. “What I love most about my job,” he says, “is when I reach that apex in a client-broker relationship where they no longer see me as their insurance broker in it for commission, but as Reg Turnbull, the guy taking care of us.” One industry peer says, “His innovation is his ability to do what others his age don’t – be old-school.”
Turnbull recently completed his CAIB in a year’s time and keeps involved with industry and community organizations. He is a member of the Young Brokers Committee of IBAM, is involved with the arts student body council for the University of Manitoba and sits on the board of the Granite Curling Club.
