  2.

The New Innovation Team Focuses on New to Zurich and New to the Market propositions Focused on largely untested “disruptive” or new to the market propositions Standalone products only No involvement in national sales campaigns and focus on “next bets” Measured on long term, 36 month, impact with view on Year 3 GWP Focus on Development, not launch NAC Proposition Development Focuses chiefly on upgrades and refreshes Sustaining and incremental innovation Enhancements, endorsements in addition to re-writes of existing forms Focused on national sales campaigns and NAC current “big bets” Immediate impact on premium (min $50M in first 12 months after launch) Focus on Launch as much or more than Development The new Innovation Team is different than Proposition Development and Launch According to HBR, for these reasons organizational location of NTM must be different than Sustaining Innovation!

  4. Innovation Team has a strong value proposition • Helps Zurich lead the “next generation” of insurance propositions • Providing a “home” for brand new ideas provided by colleagues, customers and brokers • Create high-rate BOP products (due to lack of competition) • An accelerated cycle time within TZW guidelines
