Description

Jason Disborough is the Chief Commercial Officer for Enterprise & CEO — Multinational Clients at Aon. Jason shares what interested him in pursuing a degree in math and why he picked the insurance industry. In this episode, you’ll learn how he was able to sell his consulting business to Aon over 20 years ago and still continue to work for the company. He also shares some key learnings he’s had throughout his time at Aon and his 30-plus years of experience in insurance.   Key Takeaways: A little bit about Jason and the work he currently does for Aon. How did Jason get his mathematics degree? Why didn’t Jason take the Actuary route? Jason started his own consulting company, which was later acquired by Aon; how did that journey start? When Jason started working at Aon again, he felt right at home. What did Jason learn about working with a larger corporation? Business development gives you a big skills boost because you’re working with so many different teams. Jason spent four years in London working in a global role; what were some of the things he learned while there? It was a dream come true for Jason to spend so much time with the Manchester United soccer team. Fun fact: Jason is not a good golfer. Jason is a marathon runner and shares some proud highlights he’s experienced. Why does Jason start his morning with a meditation practice? The winning process starts many, many years before the actual “goal.” You can do the impossible and achieve something that no one else could just by consistent action. How do you learn from your mistakes? Don’t get furious, get curious. Jason believes in relationship equity. It comes down to being a good mentor and having the goodwill to help others. Insurance talks to all industries so that they can help solve problems in all these industries. You become a much more interesting person because of this deep and vast understanding. What does Jason wish he’d learned sooner in his career?   Mentioned in This Episode: Aon.com/home Jason on LinkedIn
