Partner
With 14 years of insurance experience, Lara Morgan became a partner at Allinsure a year and a half ago, charged with managing the company’s strata portfolio, as well as key accounts across a range of industries. For the first half of 2020, Morgan’s biggest goals have been to settle into her new job and take on more of a leadership role in the management of business.
“I’ve also been able to really mentor our team through the management of hail claims in terms of communicating, managing expectations, keeping the claims on track given the current environment and, of course, advocating for the client,” she says.
Morgan says the COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted the need to build strong relationships with both clients and insurers. “I’ve relied on my empathetic nature more than ever to help clients work through such a challenging time,” she says. “Every little thing we can do to ease the financial burden, whilst ensuring their interests remain insured, helps. I also took on a key role in managing the mental health and wellbeing of our team, given the unique environmental challenges of having everyone working remotely.”
While the pandemic’s challenges are far from over, Morgan also has her sights set on fostering female leadership. “A big career goal I want to achieve in 2020 is continuing to mentor our young female team into leadership roles,” she says.
