- What characteristic is most important to you in an IT hire?
- Perseverance and results orientation. It is necessary when dealing with so much change in technology and so much change in RGA.
- Your relationship with a key business leader:
- I have a very good business relationship with our executive vice president of corporate finance and treasurer and his team. We formed a cross-functional team to do a large global project, full of risk. Quickly we had to develop a level of trust and communication that would be apparent to the team and expected of them. This is the first unified, global, cross-functional team successfully delivering large-scale solutions across our business lines and geographies.
