David Cordani's Vision and the Brian Evanko Transition

David Cordani has run Cigna since 2009 and is stepping down as CEO on July 1, 2026, becoming Executive Chair while COO Brian Evanko takes over. This is the biggest leadership transition in modern Cigna history, and any candidate who walks in not knowing it is signaling they didn't read the news. This module unpacks what Cordani built (the Express Scripts merger, the Evernorth brand, the Medicare divestiture, the FTC settlement) and what Evanko's actuarial-CFO background signals about where Cigna is going next: data, technology, AI, and disciplined capital allocation.
