What if operational excellence wasn't about cutting costs, but about unlocking your organization's true potential?
In this episode of Making Risk Flow, Juan de Castro speaks with Ann Haugh, Group Chief Operations Officer at Axis Capital, about why operations should be viewed as a strategic growth engine rather than a cost center. Ann shares how Axis transformed its operating model to improve efficiency while scaling the business, the importance of building cross-functional talent, and how leaders can create alignment across technology, data, and underwriting.
She also explores the role of AI in specialty insurance, explaining how automation can enhance employee experience, empower underwriters to make better decisions, and help organizations grow with greater speed, clarity, and resilience.
