Entries are now closed for the Making a Difference Awards.
ANZIIF introduced the “Making a Difference” recognition awards, which highlight individuals who have gone above and beyond to display professionalism in their workplace, and for their customers.
Entries can be self-nominated or you may nominate a colleague or peer who has demonstrated outstanding professionalism, commitment, achievement and passion in the insurance industry. Your challenge will be to record a short video entry that is compelling and based on evidence that convinces the Judging Panel that you or the nominated individual made the best difference.
All winners will receive a profile on the ANZIIF Professional Development section and recognition and exposure in the industry.
The awards are categorised by sectors, including Broking, Claims, General Insurance, Life, and Underwriting.
