Aim of the study<\/strong>. The research addresses a new concept introduced into the managerial practice of the insurance industry from Romania and it aims to test the hypothesis that success, performance and competitiveness of the organizations in the insurance industry depend also on the quality of the leadership and the leaders\u2019 ability to use storytelling, taking into account the intangibility of the insurance products.
