Come Jan. 1, 2015, FM Global will have a new CEO. But talk to current chairman and CEO Shivan Subramaniam and incoming CEO Thomas Lawson and it’s clear the philosophy that drives the organization’s success will remain intact.

For example, while FM Global is an insurance company, both men see insurance as a secondary function of the organization. Lawson describes FM Global as “an engineering company that also does insurance,” adding the primary goal is to use FM Global’s engineering and scientific expertise to make facilities resilient before there is a loss. 

“We share the fundamental belief that the majority of loss is preventable,” Lawson, who currently serves as executive vice president, says.
