He didn’t have an easy childhood as a village boy helping his parents to meet both ends by raising a cow and selling the milk.
At a young age as soon as he stepped out of secondary school (by the way, Sorens disliked studies then!), though he had the opportunity to enroll at a university, he started working to help his parents financially. He obtained a job in an insurance company as underwriting officer in 1990 and moved on to another one in 1996, quickly demonstrating exceptional capabilities and he was appointed as Underwriter. His talent was acknowledged by an important conglomerate in 2000, the British American Insurance Company in Mauritius. Sorens, with his great potential and determination quickly climbed the career ladder to Project Manager – New Life Operations System, Operations Manager, Vice President – Technical Services, Senior Vice President – Business and Channel Development. Having successfully led teams of over 750 people, Sorens was selected in 2010 as finalist for Sales Director of the Year in the British Excellence Sales and Marketing Award (BESMA). 2012 brought a turning point in his life when he was seconded to Bramer Life - Botswana as Deputy CEO/Principal Officer until June 2015.
Sorens was a speaker at the first Pan-African Bancassurance & Alternative Distribution Channels Conference 2018 in Accra, on the topic “Embracing Disruption to meet Customer Expectations from Protection to Enrichment”. He holds an Executive MBA, Diploma in Insurance from the Chartered Insurance Institute UK, Fellow Certified Insurance Professional of the Australian and New Zealand Institute of Insurance and Finance (ANZIIF), a Fellow Member of the Institute of Sales and Marketing Management UK. Currently, Sorens is the Chief Technical Officer at National Insurance Company in charge of the Life Insurance Operations.
While working, he also studied through distance-learning programs. In 2017, Sorens travelled to the US to become a Certified Canfield Trainer on The Success Principles; he has already introduced these principles to 450+ persons in his Achiever’s Trail Workshops to develop and guide the upcoming leaders to live their dreams. He is also a Certified Trainer for Happy For No Reason by Marci Shimoff.
After a fruitful professional career, he has been working on his life purpose: READ, LEARN and SHARE with the aim to create a pathway to move forward and help people by imparting his knowledge. Achievers Trail is just the beginning.
Sorens is married to Shandya and they have an eighteen year old son. He enjoys traveling, reading books and the Internet and spending time with his family.ver menos
