Complexity, Made Decidable

Nancy K. Fermano Strategic Consultant

What boards and management teams need most isn't another opinion to sort through. It's someone who's already held the seat— and knows how to turn complexity into a decision the room can actually move on.


P&L OWNERSHIP · RISK MANAGEMENT & COMPLIANCE · OPERATIONS REENGINEERING · PROFITABLE GROWTH

For thirty-five years, I’ve led revenue growth, operations, legal, and risk management at organizations including Liberty Mutual, John Hancock, and Tufts Health Plan (THP)—guiding a THP subsidiary through a spin-off, then personally leading its profitable sale. During my ten-year tenure at ACS, a Fortune 400 public company, I managed a profitable subsidiary and continued to grow that service business until ACS was later sold to Xerox.

Over the past decade, my team leadership approach has continued to produce positive results-during this time at MMA/MIIA, the insurance service programs have grown to $900M of premium and service fees under management.
