ACORD 20/20 Vision: A Leadership Forum on the Future

Just to let you know that we are beginning to create a new community for members on the ACORD website called 20/20 and you may have seen it under the COMMUNITY tab. It is under development but we will personally invite senior executives of member firms to participate. We plan to engage our solution provider leaders as well as their clients in order to better serve the industry. While it is an open conversation, it will stress future plans. Spero Zacharias, Senior Vice President of Chubb chairs our 20/20 program at the request of our Board of Directors. I will keep you posted on our progress from time to time and help you to be sure that your leaders are on-line and connected.

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.
