“Nonprofits are society’s last line of defense; they help when no one else can. Insurers know this and see the additional risks these organizations face — especially filling low-wage jobs with qualified personnel, which has always been a struggle.”

“As brokers, we uniquely see both sides of the aisle in the transaction. Transparency and timeliness are two words that stand out to me that could be improved on in helping our clients make educated buying decisions.”

“The insurance industry has become black and white, which distances it from the reality that consumers face. Algorithms control premiums and appetites have become too hardened.”

A Risk & Insurance® Power Broker® is an individual who stands out among their peers for the exceptional client work they delivered over the past year. While brokers play many key roles in the insurance industry and risk profession, a Power Broker® award recognizes problem solving, customer service and industry knowledge. 2025 applications are due by October 18, 2024.

Deadline to apply for 2025 Power Broker is October 18, 2024.
