Platforms are a force multiplier of internal and external strengths \n<\/strong>Those who have known me for years, know that I was an introvert growing up until I was a junior in high school running for class president. Yes, that surprises people! I had lots of friends across different groups (we can call them different ecosystems), but I was a relatively introspective person. Becoming class president was a catalyst in my becoming an extrovert \u2013 which my colleagues and friends recognize me as today. Why do I bring that up?\u00a0 Because over my career I leverage my introvert strengths, my analytical side and my extrovert strengths, my network of colleagues, peers, and others to bring both perspectives to ideas, topics and challenges.<\/p>\n
Both personalities play a role in how individuals work within the realm of technology and today\u2019s fast-paced changing world.\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Introverts, for example, may utilize their strengths to work on problems and find solutions more self-reliantly and in the background. They may spend more time in thoughtful contemplation about how something is best accomplished. Their genius may find its way to fruition with the use of research, testing, analysis and application. An introvert\u2019s ideas may have a certain cohesion to them because they come from the same mind.<\/p>\n
Extroverts, however, have no less genius to apply. They likely approach the same issues and problems with different methods and tools. They bring together diverse teams to consider the issue, split those teams into sub-teams, cultivate the best ideas from both and combine them. Extroverts may open their questions and ideas to the outside world and utilize subject matter experts instead of books. They may tap into outside groups with similar issues. An extrovert\u2019s solutions may look like an anthology of best ideas, applied in a way that is collaborative and customized to the need.<\/p>\n
When it comes to insurance platforms, development of and participation in ecosystems signals a shift from an introverted, introspective type of insurance organization, to a more extroverted, open and \u201cbest of options\u201d type of organization. This shift, though it may not always be painless, is going to help insurers construct a future-ready foundation. There is resilience, flexibility and \u201cknowledge\u201d that comes with interdependent systems. Ecosystems promise to provide an exciting level of interdependency, but only for insurers who are preparing platforms to interact with them.<\/p>\n
