Choose the right perspective

Match the person's company scale and line of business to yours, since running IT for a global multi-line insurer differs from running it for a regional or single-line carrier. Check when each CIO role started and how long it has lasted before asking about a specific modernization program.

Questions to take into the conversation

  1. 01How did you sequence a core policy, billing or claims system replacement, and what would you do differently?
  2. 02How do you split technology investment between keeping legacy platforms running and building new digital capabilities?
  3. 03Which parts of IT did you keep in-house and which did you outsource, and why?
