NEW ORLEANS – Gillis, Ellis & Baker announced that producer, Liz Van Dervort, has been selected to be a 2016 Power Broker® by Risk & Insurance® Magazine.
The Risk & Insurance® Power Broker® Awards are an annual selection of the most effective and influential commercial insurance brokers. The Power Broker® designation is based on nominations provided by brokers and risk managers, and is judged based on the quality of the application and on references by risk managers in each industry sector. Hundreds of risk managers and risk executives are interviewed in the process of identifying and soliciting, evaluating and judging the nominees. Brokers are judged primarily on their creativity in solving risk-related problems during the previous year, their demonstrated industry knowledge and their high level of client service.
“I am honored to receive this award,” said Van Dervort. “What makes this experience truly invaluable is that my work is validated and appreciated by my clients.”
