Leaders Life Insurance Company

Company History

Leaders Life Insurance Company began as the vision of our principal stockholder and CEO, Burt B. Holmes. Burt, a life long Tulsan and business entrepreneur, has over 50 years of experience in the sales of insurance products through his ownership of the Holmes Organization. Burt is also one of the founders of Quik Trip Corp., one of the best run convenient store chains in the mid-west and southern United States.

In 1988 Burt felt the sales of term life insurance to individuals at the worksite was an untapped market in Oklahoma. That year leaders life was Formed and our primary product, LifeStyle, was developed.

LifeStyle is a term insurance product that has an accelerated death benefit up to age 100. Leaders Life has been among the first in the country to offer this type of product, commonly referred to today as critical illness coverage. The accelerated death feature provides a benefit equal to 30% of the death benefit when the insured is diagnosed as having a major illness such as a heart attack, cardiac surgery (including bypass or transplant), stroke, life-threatening cancer, or a terminal illness where the life expectancy is 2 years or less. This product alone has made Leaders Life a dominant force in marketing individual voluntary life insurance to workers in the state.

Today Leaders Life markets in 4 states (OK, TX, AR, & KS) servicing over 500 agents and brokers and 1,200 employer groups.
