{Story by Charles McNair} A convincing case can be Dan Amos (BBA '73), who hatched the Aflac duck made that and whose supplemental insurance giant has seen 18 consecutive years of 15 percent (or better) growth, is the best CEO of his era. Audrey Tillman knows. A few years after she hired on as an attorney with Columbusbased Aflac, her boss called. Amos dangled a new job, a promotion to head the human resources operations of the world’s largest provider of supplemental insurance policies. A plum. Still, Tillman (JD ’89) felt unsure about leaving her familiar legal duties. She cross-examined the CEO. “How do you know it’s the position for me?” she asked. It’s a gut feeling, she remembers Amos telling her. You’ll be good for our company. And I’ll have your back. {Photographs by Marilyn Suriani}
