People often talk about how some industries will never get fully teched-up due to the “human element” and the limitations that come with technology, and they might be right – but they were wrong about insurance. Just take a look at Lemonade – an insurance company redefining what it means to be in the business. To learn more about how this company works, and the tech-dealings behind the scenes, we got Ori Erez, their Director of Engineering, who sat down with us to talk in depth about Lemonade, his own tech journey – from young age to present day, and dive deeper into the issues of the industry and how he roles as a leader! Key Takeaways: - How allowing your business to grow without drowning it into processes and structures can help your teams stay more creative and flexible - Why sometimes evidence works better than providing comfort - How hiring carefully can help you passively attract the talent you’re after Our Guest: Ori Erez LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/orierez/ Website: https://www.lemonade.com/ Intro and background music: Craig MacArthur - Power Shutoff (www.youtube.com/watch?v=x74iB_jtauw)
