How start your projects? (and maintain the original format)

Hi!
This is my question, exist a "better way" for start a good and clean project in Indesign?
For example, a common case:
-The writer send me a word file
-I use command PLACE for import the word file
- I maintain the format (cursives, bolds, etc.)
-In ID i delete the "paragraph styles" and the "character styles" of Word but i preserv the "aparence".
In this case, this is my problem, i create a Paragraph Style (Arial regular 12, black) and i apply to a paragraph:

So, change to Arial...etc...erasing the cursives and bolds:

¿How maintain  the cursives and bold when i applied a style?
Thanks
