In a bid to stabilize its leadership and potentially improve its stock performance, Willis Towers Watson has announced that Carl Hess will take on the roles of President and Chairman of the company, effective immediately.

The news is intended to reassure stock analysts about the company's future leadership. The board of Willis Towers Watson is confident that Carl Hess is the right person to drive the company forward, despite the recent stock price decline.
