Consulting Expertise

Despite all of the articles and books on the topic, companies today are no more effective at delivering on large-scale change initiatives than they were 20 years ago. In a recent survey, 70% of the companies said their change management initiatives did not deliver the expected results. That success rate was unchanged from similar surveys conducted in the 1980's and 1990's. And the environment for change is only getting more complex.  Read more .......

Lloyd's North America President Hank Watkins on the Proposed New York Insurance Exchange

What are the possible technology implications of New York Governor David A. Patterson's announcement regarding a planned New York Insurance Exchange modeled after Lloyd's of London?
With the governor's announcement still fresh in everyone's mind, it came as no surprise that the subject came up on Tuesday during a 2010 Property/Casualty Insurance Joint Industry Forum panel discussion that included Hank Watkins, president of Lloyd's North America.

Prompted by a question from the audience, Watkins said that Lloyd's is willing to help the NYIE effort in any way that it can. In addition, he says the organization has been intimately involved in discussions with past and present insurance commissioners and that it hopes to become involved in NYIE working groups.

"It's not something that is totally new to us," Watkins said. "We welcome the competition. Who wouldn't?"

I wonder whether this help will extend to technology advice and guidance. If it does then if I were NYIE I would ‘beware Greeks bearing gifts’. Even if this advice were given in good faith the result may be that the NYIE would be saddled with inefficient, outdated, legacy systems for decades to come! I guess that would be one way of ‘leveling the playing field’.
