What does LAMP stand for?

In 1969, GAMA International's annual meetings became known as the Life Agency Management Program (LAMP). Then, in 1999, having outgrown the acronym, it was simply referred to as LAMP. In 2006, the Executive Committee officially changed the meaning of LAMP to Leadership and Management Program, reflecting GAMA's current mission.
