True digital transformation isn't about throwing technology at a problem—it's about "ruthless prioritization" aligned with growth, says Claude Wade, AIG's EVP, Chief Digital Officer and Global Head of Business Operations and Claims. Wade connected with fellow World 50 members to discuss AIG's tech journey (including tackling one of its most critical barriers: reducing quote submissions from weeks to minutes through focused AI implementation) and how transformation success comes from starting small, understanding core processes, and letting results build organic momentum.

Maintaining a clear strategic vision is critical for organizational direction and stability during a CEO transition. Just ask Jamie Iannone, CEO of eBay: When he took the helm in April 2020, he hit the ground running with an eight-page strategic vision for the board. That vision held up three years later because it focused on modernizing technology infrastructure to empower customers and small-business owners who transact on the platform. At a recent Next Generation Leadership meeting, Iannoe shared that at any one time, eBay hosts 2 billion live auctions for 132 million customers across 190 countries. Hence, the company uses AI in search, risk modeling, advertising, and authenticating reused and luxury items. When it comes to AI priorities, Iannone is clear: First, create a differentiated customer experience; then, augment work to make people more successful. #ceoinsights #CEOmentality #leadership #strategy #vision #ai #artificialintelligence #world50

Next Generation Leadership graduate Harry Sommer—who became the CEO of Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings Ltd. last year—recently joined participants to share how he set priorities in his first year on the job. The best advice he received came from a former CEO, who said: “In my entire career, I’ve only made five decisions that matter.” That CEO could name and explain the big strategic moves that delivered outsized returns. To stay the course, Sommer carries around a one-pager that lists the seven or eight priorities that have the best chances of driving the business forward—initiatives he presented to the board. The biggest decision in his first year? Balancing product experience and cost structure. We're excited to continue the conversation at our October meeting, which kicked off today in Alexandria, VA.

In this 20-minute listen, Mark Weinberger, former CEO of EY, discusses purpose, achieving work-life balance, and prioritizing what's truly important: "It's not one decision that determines whether you are a family man or a businessman. It's all those little decisions that add up that matter." https://lnkd.in/esBTqnNb
Mark Weinberger: "You can't be successful at work if you don't win outside of work."

We’re kicking off the fall 2024 Next Leader season by spotlighting some of the exceptional C-suite faculty who will guide, mentor, and teach incoming participants. One of those executives is John Jenkins, EVP & General Counsel at TE Connectivity. "My most rewarding career moments came from calculated risk-taking, the mentors in my corner, and connections with the next generation of corporate leaders," said John. "Now, I can pay my experience forward as a World 50 Next Leader faculty member.” As leadership — and the responsibilities that come with it — continues to evolve, having real-time access to the learnings and experiences of successful C-suite leaders is a game changer. “The role of general counsel has shifted significantly over the past twenty years, evolving from behind-the-scenes legal counsel to a strategic business partner. Next Leader provides the enterprise leadership skills needed to make that transition,” he added. In addition to serving as faculty, John has continued to send his own direct reports through the program. “After participating in Next Leader, my colleagues are energized by the networking opportunities, and the new strategies and perspectives they gain." A few spots remain for the November 11-14 program in Ascot, U.K. To learn more about program benefits and apply, visit: https://okt.to/sOL0R2 #world50 #talentdevelopment
