Dan Amos is chairman, chief executive officer and president of [Aflac](/org/aflac) Incorporated. In 2013, the Harvard Business Review began recognizing the 100 Best-Performing CEOs in the World, and has named Dan to the list for the past four years (No. 33). He is the second-longest serving CEO in the Fortune 200, and his innovative leadership style has led to astounding annual revenue growth from $2.7 billion in 1990 to $21.8 billion in 2018. Today, [Aflac](/org/aflac) is a Fortune 500 company (No. 143), helping provide protection to more than 50 million people through its subsidiaries in Japan and the U.S., where it is a leading supplemental insurer. In Japan, [Aflac](/org/aflac) is the leading provider of medical and cancer insurance and insures one in four households.

In January 2000, Dan launched the popular [Aflac](/org/aflac) Duck advertising campaign, transforming [Aflac](/org/aflac) from a successful supplemental insurance company to a top international brand recognized by Fortune magazine as one of the 100 Best Companies to Work for in America for the 20th consecutive year and as one of the World’s Most Admired Companies for the 18th year. In 2015, Dan’s persistent pursuit to distinguish [Aflac](/org/aflac) and demonstrate its commitment to policyholders led to the launch of One Day PaySM, [Aflac](/org/aflac)’s trailblazing initiative in the United States. For eligible claims, [Aflac](/org/aflac) can process, approve and electronically send funds to claimants for quick access to cash in just one business day. His commitment to ethical business practices has led the [Ethisphere Institute](/org/ethisphere-institute) to recognize [Aflac](/org/aflac) Incorporated as a World's Most Ethical Company for 13 consecutive years, making [Aflac](/org/aflac) the only insurance company in the world to appear on this list every year since the inception of the award in 2007. Dan has also appeared five times on Institutional Investor magazine’s lists of America’s Best CEOs for the insurance category.

In 1995, Dan inspired [Aflac](/org/aflac)’s decades-long commitment to helping families of children diagnosed with cancer. The company and its independent sales associates have contributed more than $133 million to this cause, including funding for the [Aflac](/org/aflac) Cancer and Blood Disorders Center of Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta, which has become a leading childhood cancer facility in the United States as rated by U.S. News and World Report. In taking this commitment to the next level, Dan has been a driving force behind the introduction of My Special [Aflac](/org/aflac) Duck, the company’s social robot that uses medical play, lifelike movement and emotions to engage and help comfort kids during their cancer care. In December 2018, TIME magazine named My Special [Aflac](/org/aflac) Duck as one of the “Best Inventions of 2018.”

In 2013, Dan proudly accepted the Salute to Greatness Award from the Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Center in Atlanta, joining a distinguished list of past recipients, including Ambassador Andrew J. Young, U.S. Poet Laureate Maya Angelou, Ervin "Magic" Johnson, and musicians Bono and Stevie Wonder. He has also received the Anti-Defamation League's Torch of Liberty Award.

A past member of the board of trustees of Children's Healthcare of Atlanta, Dan serves on the board of the House of Mercy of Columbus in Georgia. He is former chairman of the board of the Japan-America Society of Georgia and chairman emeritus of the University of Georgia Foundation.

Dan joined [Aflac](/org/aflac) in 1973, working in sales for 10 years. In 1983, he was named president of [Aflac](/org/aflac) and was later promoted to chief operating officer in 1987.
