Today's podcast is one of those conversations that stretched my ability to keep up with my interviewee to the limit. Andrew Johnston is the Global Head of Insurtech at Gallagher Re and has been at the forefront of understanding and chronicling the Insurtech phenomenon since it emerged over ten years ago. Gallagher Re's quarterly reports on the topic have been required reading over the past decade for anyone wanting to understand the intersection between insurance and technology. In that period Digital disruption, Blockchain, Parametric and Embedded insurance are themes that have come to the fore. Now AI is the dominant force, so much so that Insurtech and AI are now effectively synonymous. Gallagher Re's latest quarterly Insurtech report is one of the best pieces of research into AI and insurance that I have read. It goes way beyond AI-related Insurtech investment opportunities and digs right into the profound risk implications of AI as an emerging casualty peril in its own right. Andrew is a dream guest, incredibly sharp, bright and fun to spend time with. He's that rare kind of person who makes you feel more intelligent for having spent time chatting to them. Listening back there are points in the conversation where whole new avenues of questioning were opening up that I failed to explore. But that's the mark of a strong interview. It always leaves you wanting more. It's a bit like when you wake up the morning after a big debate or argument with terrible pangs of regret that you failed to ask the killer question in the heat of the moment. The developments in AI are moving so fast that I feel certain it won't be long before I have Andrew back on the show to help put everything into context for us. But until then this is the next best thing.

In part 2 of discussing poor leadership, we shift from problems to possibilities. David, Pam, and Andrew break down the traits that separate great leaders from disastrous ones—and how anyone can learn the skills to lead with clarity, trust, and impact.

From DSOs to private practices, Andrew shares eye-opening stories that show how weak leadership doesn't just stay at the top—it filters into workflows, team morale, and even patient care. Curious what the signs are that your leadership may be failing?
