Hi, I am Steve Brewer, executive of Insurance Solutions at CoreLogic, and I want to share with you a little bit about my journey with Stewart Leadership today.

Now, CoreLogic helps power insurance companies to deliver trusted moments that help families and businesses protect and restore their properties.

And we were created about five years ago from the combination of five businesses that all came together to create a new operating division within CoreLogic.

Now, you can imagine that’s a pretty tall task. It is been fun, but man, has it been a challenge. And I’ll tell you some of the, some of the challenges we faced.

First and foremost, we started, we had five acquisitions. We had to integrate all at one time. Three were already in play, two were in process. Uh, and it was my job to bring together a senior leadership team that would truly be cohesive and serve as a foundation of rapid growth for a new vertical for our business.

It was a tall task, and if I could be honest, it was a little overwhelming. Um, and there’s a couple different dimensions, um, that I, that I engaged with, with Stewart Leadership.

The first was, as an executive coach for me personally stepping into a role leading a business, um, just really having that one-on-one, interaction, guidance and perspective, uh, from the Stewart Leadership team on, on making critical decisions, um, being decisive and really engaging and finding out what my team needed from me as their executive.

Second, I knew we needed to create a very cohesive senior leadership team if we were gonna have success in bringing these acquisitions together. And that meant bringing executives from many different, um, uh, places across different, uh, cultures together and building trust and accelerating that process of team building.

It was so critical for our success. Uh, and we worked with Stewart Leadership Team very, uh, very heavily on that dimension. Um, and they actually, uh, some of those leaders brought in Stewart Leadership for their departments to do the very same things.

So just, you know, that, that one-on-one engagement, um, you know, bringing those best practices to bear as we, as we help facilitate, um, uh, that, that team formation just been so critical for our success.

And third, the acquisition blueprint. This has been something I’ve been excited to work with, uh, the Stewart Leadership team on is really the eight dimensions of culture. Bringing in, uh, a, a tech startup into a large information services company. That’s a daunting task. Um, and this was a, this was a, a task in which we needed their capabilities.

And so, um, really, uh, working with Stewart leadership to, uh, level set and really go through a cultural assessment, figure out where the Delta and the, and the GAP score and where we could celebrate the success.of both organizations. It just, it, it, it ultimately has been very successful. And I think a large part of that has been our work with the Stewart Leadership team.

And then finally, I think the thing that stands out to me, uh, we work with a lot of executive development and, and, and leadership organizations across CoreLogic, uh, and, and, and they all bring, uh, fantastic things for me. The reason I have used through leadership more than others is, one, it’s a really, it’s a really nice combination of, uh, best practice and thought leadership, but practically applied. You know, they’re one-on-One work with my team. The interviews they do before our sessions, it really tailors the message. It really tailors the content into what our teams need at the moment, uh, that we’re having those sessions. Um, leadership development has been fantastic.

And I guess at the end of the day, um, it’s exciting because I really feel that when I work with Stewart Leadership, not only do I get the, the, you know, the results that we’re looking for to, to build and, and, and challenge our teams to succeed, uh, but that I have an advocate in our corner. I mean, they understood our business after a very short period of time and they really, really, uh have a vested interest in our success. And I think that’s truly for me, what sets ’em apart from the others we’ve worked with.

So I wish you the best in your endeavors and, uh, thanks to the Stewart Leadership Team for all you’ve done for us over the years.
