The AI's read

Staeheli's 25 years in aerospace, defense, and government contracting fit the role. He will also keep leading the Metro D.C. market. WTW launched its global defense effort in October 2026, so this hire puts a leader behind an existing plan. The story reports no contracts, sales, or financial results from the effort. It does not show whether the plan is changing the business.
