Inside the ACORD Board Room

The ACORD Board of Directors meeting was convened today in our Conference Centre at the ACORD office in London. Chairman Clem Booth (Allianz) presided over a busy agenda addressing financial and legal topics. The Board approved the 2008 Operating Plan & Budget and provided with a briefing on the London Market and ACORD Standards.

Since John Kellington joined the ACORD staff in October, the Board elected John Leonard to serve as Chairman of the Board for 2008.

New Book

My latest book presents the challenges members face when adopting industry standards as well as the opportunities that come as a result. It features my discussions with many people over many years and follows the foundation I set in my first book "The Business Information Revolution".

Industry standards are never adopted in a vacuum. They become part and parcel of all the trials and tribulations managers face in their day to day work. ACORD Standards are always part of a larger software development project that brings along people, priorities and politics. Adopting industry standards isn't simple, but the benefits far outweigh the problems of building and maintaining proprietary alternatives.

I trust that you will appreciate my frankness, identify with some of the challenges and learn from what others have done to pave the way.
