So to add a little flare for 2021, and really understand who are board are, we asked them a few questions!  

First of all, we welcome our President, Mr Stephen Halsall, who is returning to serve for the term 2020/2021.  He is supported by a great executive and directors. 

Here goes!

• What are you most passionate about professionally? Personally?

Working with clients that trust and value your advice and help with protecting many of the items they hold most dear, their families, homes and businesses.  absolutely enjoy seeing and helping develop staff with little to no understanding of insurance, to well-trained Broker professionals - the best of the best!

Personally, it would be the same protecting my family and business and watching our children grow and spread their wings, hopefully leaving the nest….. soon.

• What would you do even if you didn’t get paid to do it?

I really enjoy working outdoors landscaping, thinning trees, with fresh air, getting my hands dirty, a relaxing break from an office environment.

• What are you surprisingly good at?

Finding solutions to problems, implementation brings me to my second strong point… delegation.

• How long have you been working in the industry? 

35 years

• What’s your biggest accomplishment? 

Growing a small Brokerage to a mid-sized brokerage with 5 locations with staff that treat each other like family.  I would like to say raising three young well-educated adults, but my wife Tam deserves the credit, it was often best I stayed out of the way and just do as I was told.  LOL.

• What problems do you consistently solve for your clients?

How to find the correct markets and solutions for coverages they require and on the life and health side, not just the basics.  I enjoy working with clients and explaining that strong foundations are required early when it may not seem as important.

• What are you complimented on most in your work?

Explaining coverages and why they are necessary, clients often say no one explained that to us before,  we are not always the lowest but our service, personal on-site visits and regular contact have kept many clients through three generations.  Just like we want our business to grow and prosper we want to be one of their trusted advisors that help them accomplish the same.

Thank you, Stephen!  Stephen can be contacted at All Coverage Insurance,
