About Michael A. Stachowiak

President & Deputy CEO at Texas Life Insurance Company, where I’m helping lead a legacy business through strategic modernization and a thoughtful leadership transition. My focus is on aligning people, systems, and strategy to position the company for continued success, growth, and the resilience.I’ve spent the past 20+ years building and leading commercial organizations across insurance, technology, and distribution—working in both high-growth startups and enterprise environments. I’ve led national sales teams, managed through M&A and transformation, stood up scalable growth functions, and worked closely with boards and executive teams to drive clarity and momentum.I believe in continuous improvement and leading by example—making data-driven decisions, taking smart risks, and staying grounded in purpose. Above all I believe people are the greatest driver of company performance, customer value, and overall enterprise success.Outside of work, I’m a husband and father to three daughters. My priorities are faith, family, and serving the communities we’re part of—both professionally and personally.
