Further enhancing the proposition to dramatically improve your overall customer experience, AlphaTrust adheres to strict regulatory and compliance requirements, delivering one of the most advanced embedded and cloud-enabled, fully customisable, document delivery and eSignature solutions on the market.


To adapt to changing needs, we designed our system with the aim of empowering companies to own and maintain it – putting you in control of how you organise your protection business. Whether refreshing existing business or entering a new market, you need to be able to act quickly to changing conditions and demands. SSG Digital gives you a solution that meets your unique needs, processes and workflows to transform your protection proposition.

“Transform your entire customer and adviser experience – and your protection business – with a market-leading digital solution.”

The next two, initiative and responsibility, are, according to Towers-Clark, “the hardest” to put in place.


“They certainly have been the hardest with within my company to implement. And the reason why is that from birth – well, from about two years old – we're told what to do. And we have an educational system which tells us what we should be learning and how we should learn it rather than actually encouraging us to work out what we should learn and working out how to do it,” he explains.


“So all initiative is kind of beaten out of us by the time we get to an employment situation and even once you get into employment – I mean obviously its changing hugely now – but even once you get into employment, you're still told to told what to do and therefore you don't take any responsibility because, frankly, what's the point of taking responsibility if you haven't got the freedom to take the initiative.


“So it's a downward spiral I see on that, but it can be an upward spiral the other way.”


The final skill, development, is essentially self-development, he explains.


“So people try and understand what they've done and why they've done it and it how they can develop further in order to feel more empowered.”
