One thing you can say for sure is that Gordon Stewart is leaving the Insurance Information Institute in a lot better shape than when he came on board 17 years ago. Back then, the organization was in a “death spiral,” he recalled, and its long-term future was very much in doubt.
Today, the Institute is far leaner than in 1989, but also more focused, effective, credible and valuable, according to Mr. Stewart, who retires at the end of the month. He will be replaced by Robert P. Hartwig, the group's longtime chief economist and prolific spokesman.
While Mr. Hartwig has thrived as a source for the media and a ubiquitous speaker at industry conferences, Mr. Stewart has been more of an inside man, rallying the Institute's members and staff around a very specific mission.
