“What do you like most about your job?”  

I enjoy the teamwork aspect of projects, which provides me opportunities to connect with people from other teams across Sovereign and The Co-operators and to help me improve multiple skill sets. 

Three questions with Anh-Tuan Tran 

Tell us about an accomplishment you’re proud of. 
My first half-marathon in Tokyo many years ago. Reaching the last meter of the race is one of the most unforgettable moments of my life. It taught me to be patient and persistent to achieve long-term goals in life. 

What was your first job? 
My first job was as an assistant to a food packaging designer. I learned the importance of strategic thinking and creativity, which have helped me succeed in my career.

What’s a quote or philosophy you live by? 
“The best gift you can give to yourself is perseverance” by Maxime Lagacé.
