Ep 472 - The Importance of Workplace Accessibility Guest: Joel Dembe By Stuart McNish “Accessibility” is a word that you hear more of, and for good reason. Canadian Paralympian Joel Dembe says, “Being accessible is essential when creating a strong and inclusive workplace and society. And it's good business. It's good business in so many ways – namely it's good for the bottom line.” According to Jason Keck, the CEO and Co-Founder of Broker Buddha, “Diverse and inclusive companies are 35% more likely to surpass their competitors.” Joel Dembe adds, “Companies with diverse workplaces are six times more likely to be innovative and anticipate choppy headwaters and then adapt to meet new opportunities.” According to the Web Accessibility Platform, AudioEye, “more than 1.3 billion people, that's one in six people who live with some type of a disability.” Joel Dembe points out, “ I often tell business leaders we have to see disability as an economic opportunity.” We invited tennis and accessibility champion and RBC Senior Manager of Communications Joel Dembe to join us for a Conversation That Matters about removing barriers.

And what makes a great startup name? Well, if you are feeling lazy, you could use a startup name generator. However, if you want something that will really make an impact, then you will want to hear this. Because in this episode of the Brains Byte Back podcast, Jason Keck, CEO & Co-Founder of Broker Buddha, a startup using online smart forms to speed up insurance applications and renewals, joins us to share what he believes to be the three ingredients needed to create a fantastic startup name. Additionally, Keck, who previously held the role of Shazam's Head of Business Development, shares his backstory, and how he made the switch from working at Tumblr to co-founding Broker Buddha. He goes into detail about why he was inspired to help create Broker Buddha after members of the co-founding team experienced the slow and inefficient processes of submitting insurance information for a previous startup. Where information was passed back and forth via PDF files and other archaic data capture tools. Keck and the team saw how the insurance industry desperately needed new, online tools for collecting information from their clients, and decided they would find a solution. Thus, Broker Buddha was born. Keck also talks about The Enlightened Agent, a podcast he hosts on behalf of Broker Buddha, where they are currently exploring diversity and inclusion in the insurance industry. And to close the show host Sam Brake Guia and Keck discuss their shared love for his home city of New Orleans.

Welcome to the Tearsheet Podcast. I'm Zack Miller. We're continuing with our insurance and insurtech trends with a story today about a startup tackling a major hurdle in the digitzation of the industry. As a policy holder, you've likely experienced the reams of forms you need to sign and file to get a policy. Imagine a commercial insurance broker — having to handle filing numerous forms — in all their glorious, clunky offlineness — every day. It's crazy — PDFs were never meant to be used as a communication channel. Jason Keck is the CEO of Broker Buddha, a company that quickly and easily adopts offline forms to a silky smooth and smart online experience. With entrepreneurial experiences and employment stints at popular internet companies like Tumblr and Shazam, Keck sees a major opportunity to automate the application and renewal process for insurance brokers. Jason is our guest today on the Tearsheet Podcast. Before we jump into the interview — If you get value out of this podcast, we'd appreciate a review wherever you get your podcasts. We do this for you and reviews are the fuel that make this podcast go and help others to discover it. Here's my interview with Jason.
This episode is sponsored by IA Path - Unlocking Your Adjusting Superpowers. Go to iapath.com Broker Buddha helps Insurance Brokers & Agents win more business by moving the application and renewal process into an interactive, customer-friendly online experience. In this episode Tony (he is the one making all of the typing sounds at the beginning of the podcast - before I sent him a nasty message) & I spoke with Jason Keck, CEO of Broker Buddha. Jason discussed more than just the solutions Broker Buddha provides. One big insight that I took away from this recording was Jason's belief that successful startups need to be really good at, and remembered for one BIG thing. Too many startups are trying to solve too many problems, too quickly. Their potential customers can't pin down that one thing they are really good at, thus, aren't known for solving any problem. Jason is a serial entrepreneur with senior experience at some big-time startups such as Shazam. He definitely brings an interesting perspective to how insurtech should solve insurance-related problems.
