Dein Update zur Digitalisierung der Versicherungsbranche. In dieser Folge des Digital Insurance Podcast spricht Jonas Piela mit Michael Waitze, Gründer von Michael Waitze Media. Michael Waitze Media besteht u. a. aus dem Asia Tech Podcast. Hier spricht Waitze über InsurTech-Trends in Asien. Seit 2019 spricht Michael Waitze im Asia InsurTech Podcast über den asiatischen Raum aus der Sicht der Versicherungsbranche. Aktuell hat er seinen Fokus auf Embedded Insurance und KI. Michael hält den asiatischen Raum für überaus spannend. Das speist sich zum einen aus der Tatsache, dass es ein überaus heterogener Raum ist. Indonesien, Vietnam und China seien kaum miteinander zu vergleichen. Ein weiterer Unterschied zum europäischen Binnenraum: Armut. Der asiatische Raum ist stark unterversichert. Die meisten Leute greifen auf erspartes Geld und Assets zurück, um einen Schaden zu begleichen, so Michael. Hier steckt noch großes Potenzial für Versicherer. Zudem sei für die Menschen in Asien der direkte Kontakt noch immer sehr wichtig. Das alles - und noch vieles weitere - gilt es zu berücksichtigen.

The way I've discovered success later in life is like the old Bob Dylan quote, “If a man wakes up in the morning and goes to bed at night, and in between does what he likes, then he is a success”. I think, that is the best definition because it's really a story you can write yourself. We always think that when I get to this stage in my business I'll sell it, I'll be happy, but you won't. That won't make you happy in all this sort of state of yours, hold your happiness hostage to something in the future, I'll just do this deal, or do another year, or sell this business, and then I'll be happy. It doesn't happen.  1:52     I thought that you had to be able to buy and sell a business and make hundreds of millions or billions to be worthy5:50     Success is one example, but a lot of our identity and our relationships are embedded around us.8:41     We always think that when I get to this stage in my business I'll sell it, I'll be happy, but you won't.15:41   A mentor said to me take as much cash as you can out the business, and stick it into real estate, stick it into assets19:04   As an entrepreneur you're always thinking or scheming or is plotting or is trying to do something betterhttp://www.grahamdbrown.com About Graham Brown - 15 years helping corporates, startup founders and storytellers find their voice- Public speaker, published author, investor- Founder CEO Pikkal & Co - we create award winning podcasts for brands- Podcast Guesting Pro - get booked on 24 podcasts in the next 6 months- Founder The Podcast Accelerator - global mastermind of podcast hosts & producers- Podcast show host @ Podcast Maps- Author Podcasting for Brands- Artificial Intelligence & Cognitive Psychology (Sussex University)- Entrepreneurship (Harvard Business School HBX)- Ironman triathleteGraham is the founder of Pikkal & Co - Award Winning Podcast Agency – an AI Powered, Data Driven B2B Podcast Agency in Singapore and The Podcast Accelerator - a Mastermind of thought leadership podcast hosts.He is a published author on the subject of The Digital Transformation of Communication, works including "The Human Communication Playbook", “The Mobile Youth: Voices of the Connected Generation” – documenting the rise of mobile culture in the early 2000s in Japan, China, Africa and India and “Brand Love – How to Build a Brand Worth Talking About”.He also hosts Podcast Maps, The Be More Human Podcast, The XL Podcast, XL: 10 Minute Leaders Live and Asia Tech Podcast.

What do people love about a certain brand or company? Is it the quality, price, looks, or is it the story behind it?When we think of Apple, Microsoft or Amazon, we think of its founders, how they communicate, how they look on stage or on TV, and associate the company around their image. Companies also project their image around how their product or service looks to their end customer.Storytelling a brand is not something new, it's been done for so long. If you ever watched an episode of Mad Men, even in the 60s they were spinning stories. Then why are we talking about it these days?I believe in a world of so many options for consumers, if it's not the story of the brand, it's hard to differentiate anymore. Even their stories become tiring because it stinks of commercialism. Then how do we do storytelling now? People say "authenticity" but we need to dig deeper into what that means. That's how we do it on the Future Design Podcast.Graham Brown was the host of the Asia Tech Podcast, that hosted guests like Tony Fernandez (CEO of Air Asia) and Rod Drury (former CEO of Xero).

Let’s face it, we’re facing a “new normal” in the post-pandemic world. This will create risks and challenges for companies that cannot adapt, but massive opportunities for those that can.  In this episode, we spoke with Graham Brown, host of the Asia Tech Podcast and Chief Storyteller of Pikkal & Co, about how successful companies will transform themselves to succeed in the “new normal” world, in particular around the way they leverage marketing and comms. They will move from a pipeline to platform model - from controlling to curating comms - and from efficiency to effective communications. It’s about turning your employees from assets into advocates.  Show Notes: 00:50 How Graham went from travelling the world and living out of suitcases to starting one of Asia’s leading podcasts 04:10 An agile mindset is what will allow people - and companies - to adapt to the current crisis and be successful in the “new normal” world. 09:10 As Mike Tyson famously said, “Everyone has a plan until they get punched in the mouth.” How to survive and thrive in the current environment. 10:30 Covid-19 is driving the innovation of communication.

It’s not about contacts, it’s about connections.  22:45 Is this the end for tech events? 23:45 The Future of Work - companies will shift their focus from B2C to B2E as they realise that leveraging their employees can be great brand advocates. 39:44 What are some of the interesting ways that emerging technologies will help us overcome the crisis? Topics include urban farming, how Japan has used Robots and Zoom - as well as Minecraft - to conduct graduation ceremonies.  46:20 What is the strangest coronavirus story that you have heard? Including how 5G causes Covid-19 and pro wrestling is considered an “essential service” during the lockdown in Florida? 50:00 The rise of Zoom “happy hours” and Graham’s after hours podcast, The Grind.  52:30 Graham has done over 750 podcasts - what’s the funniest thing that has happened on a podcast? Eating a fried scorpion on a live podcast is not recommended.  55:40 Leaders that communicate with honesty and transparency build a following  1:01:00 What is something you know today about podcasting that you wish you knew when you started out? 1:05:00 Tell me a positive benefit that will come about as a result of coronavirus

I am sharing a new Audiobook called Podcasting for Robots. Podcasting for Robots is about human communication is the era of the machine. As businesses undergo radical change driven by digital transformation and hypergrowth technologies like Artificial Intelligence, they will be similarly forced to find their human voice. The more we push into Automation, the more businesses and customers will year for the human touch - conversational tools like Podcasts. Evolving platforms that do "everything with everybody" will end up offering the same products to the same customers, the only distinguishing barrier to entry left being the human beings who build and advocate the platform.

I’m spending a couple of days with my client Xero down in Brisbane Australia this week for Xerocon. Xerocon is the manifestation of how a platform competes in this era of digital transformation. At the end of the day, it’s about people. Xero is an $8bn SAAS platform but it’s product isn’t really beautiful accounting software, it’s the whole experience - it’s this event, it’s every interaction with the people in the team and it’s their story. The physical software is just one tool in this bigger product suite. That’s the experience we as customers buy today.

In this special edition of Asia Tech Podcast I share an inside look on what’s happening in the fast moving world of Customer Experience in Asia. Case studies featured include Alibaba Hema, PingAn Financial, Grab, Uber, Emirates and Airasia. The challenge facing brands in Asia is their competition won’t come from the next guy in category, but from a completely different sector. This asynchronous competition - players like Alibaba or Amazon - will be well resourced and able to wipe out incumbents and with them generations of legacy. We look at how Asia is positioned to accommodate Digital Transformation and who is leading in this space.

Spotify has spent $400m on acquiring a winning strategy in podcasting. Their acquisitions include Gimlet Media, Anchor and Parcast. While the industry has analysed this strategic direction in detail, nobody has broken this down for Asia. In Asia Tech Podcast 493, my colleague Prarthana Sibal joins me to look at the podcast opportunity in Asia. We unpack Asia’s $30 trillion middle class and frontrun the demographic trends that could make Asia a huge greenfield market. We discuss why young girls are avid consumers or true crime podcasts, why Asian brands have a substantial storytelling gap that won’t be filled by legacy or ad agencies, and how the podcast market in Asia could be potentially bigger than the rest of the world.
