Highlights:
“It’s not about change for change’s sake. It’s not about novelty for novelty’s sake.”
“It really is about moving the organization in a way that keeps you relevant in the minds of your customers, your clients, consumers, so that at the end of the day you have a valuable proposition to the market.”
“If we had more data, what would we do with that data to help us target people that are at risk that don’t even know they’re at risk yet?”
“Even during recessions, those premium products, those premium services always excel. And in fact, we find that in some cases they do even better in tough economic times.”
