Making a claim is rarely just a process. Behind every flood, fire or major loss is a person dealing with uncertainty, disruption and often significant emotional stress.
In this episode, broadcaster Datshiane Navanayagam is joined by behavioural psychologist Dr Simon Moore and Ecclesiastical’s Jeremy Trott to explore the human side of claims. Together, they discuss why empathy matters, how stress affects decision-making, the emotional impact difficult claims can have on brokers, and what clients need most when things go wrong.
A practical conversation about listening, reassurance and supporting people through some of their most challenging moments.
