Insurance Business Australia's (IB) Elite Brokers 2023 list ranks the best-performing insurance brokers across Australia.
James Skiadas, senior insurance broker, strategic leader, executive director, and consultant at IMC Insurance Brokers (IMC), made it to this year's list.
Skiadas is an insurance leader with a first-rate reputation for providing high-level guidance and advice in the context of risk management, insurance coverage, claims management, underwriting, product development, and corporate leadership. He is driven with exceptional contributions to ambitious and sustainable business plans, leading to notable achievements while upholding integrity, accountability, and passion for results.
Moreover, Skiadas is an innovator who can successfully contribute to the development of new insurance products and services and coordinate their introduction into existing commercial markets.
Being a leader does not mean you have to do everything by yourself. As a leader, you must know how to manage your team and keep them satisfied.
In an interview with IB, Skiadas said he leads a team of 11 – including his brother, wife, and daughter – and keeps the team members satisfied by improving their workplace environment.
“It's important to ensure that your team is happy with their workplace environment,” he said. “If they love where they work and they care about what they are doing, it's reflected in their work, and clients really see that.”
“We have experienced significant growth in the last 12 months,” he added. “While we don't always discuss work at the dinner table, it does come up a lot, and the subject of insurance is always around us.”
