You’ve heard it said that the ones that embrace technology are the ones who will win.In today's rapidly-evolving world, staying ahead of the curve is more important than ever. And nowhere is that more true than in the world of life insurance.Gone are the days of traditional policies and paper-based applications. Today, the most successful life insurance companies are the ones that have embraced technology to streamline their processes, make it easier for customers to apply, and provide faster, more personalized service.  Today I am excited to talk to you about another application in which this company is using technology to change the face of the life insurance industry.Welcome to The Level Up Leader Podcast.  I am your host, Michael King.  I am an executive coach and founder of Teams.Coach, LLC. I work with C-level leaders to clarify and expand the vision, elevate performance, and elevate their Leadership.  On today’s episode, I am joined by Jim Grauel, the CDO of FOXO Tech. Jim comes with an impressive tenure in the insurance industry, brandishing nearly 30 years of experience in roles ranging from agent to CDO. With prior experience from Legal & General, Physicians Mutual, and Assurity, he has been instrumental in building agencies, brokerages, and regions, and is now drawing upon this unique skill set to implement FOXO’s innovative “for agents, by agents” model. Jim shares a story about how he had a boss that was jealous of his success and tried to move him out.  I don’t know about you, but I have stories like that from my past…and it's painful.  As leaders, we need to remember that it's not about who we are in charge of, but rather who’s in our charge.  What are we doing daily to set our team members up for growth?A special thank you to our featured Artist, Names Without Numbers, for allowing us to use their music.  We decided we wanted to feature music that I produced as a music producer..so that’s pretty cool.
