MIAMI, FL (February 3, 2011) - The Inter-Company Marketing Group (ICMG), the trade association devoted to fostering strategic alliances in the insurance and financial services marketplace, selected Derek Brigham, CPCU, alliance partner administrator for American Family Insurance, the 2011 recipient of ICMG's L. Don Kampe Lifetime Achievement Award. The annual Kampe Award, presented this week at the ICMG 27th annual meeting in Miami, recognizes an individual who has made significant long-term contributions to the growth and development of ICMG through leadership and personal service. The award was first given in 2001 to the late Don Kampe, who passed away in September 2010. The award was named in his honor several years ago as a special recognition of his leadership of ICMG as a board member from 1987 to 2010, including two terms as president. Brigham joined ICMG in 1995, served on the organization's board of directors for seven years, and was 2007 president. He was instrumental in helping ICMG develop its strategic plan during his term as president. A graduate of Upper Iowa University, Brigham began his career as an independent insurance agent in 1981. He joined CUNA Mutual Group in 1989 as a call center representative, and was promoted to manager. While at CUNA Mutual, he served as marketing manager; manager of a call center; manager of insurance brokerage; senior manager of corporate development; and senior product manager for e-commerce. In 2010, he joined American Family Insurance in Madison, Wisconsin as alliance partner administrator.
