Dan Amos has been at the helm of insurance giant Aflac (AFL) for more than 34 years, making him one of the longest-serving CEOs in the Fortune 500. He has also presided over an incredible 1500%-plus return on the company's stock, which is celebrating its 50th year of being listed on the NYSE.

At the same time, Aflac's annual revenue has been on the decline since 2019 amid a general decline in supplemental health insurance, and as its largest external market - Japan - also shows signs of slowing.
