What do HealthTech solutions and insurance premiums have in common?

If you collect data about your body condition in the mobile application associated with your health policy, the insurer knows whether you exercise, do not smoke, take care of good health, it is probably obvious that you should benefit from the insurance side – claims our guest.

How can IT solutions affect the business results of insurance companies?

Omar Mendoza acknowledges the gap in technological advancement in the Latin American insurance sector. He mentioned HDI’s investment in technology to improve management, customer experience, and real-time risk measurement. One example is the development of flood sensors by the TH!NX division to reduce losses, he talks about in our podcast.

Management should possess emotional intelligence and humility. Emotional intelligence helps management be consistent and provide strong leadership in the middle of an ever-changing environment… Humility on the other hand helps management remember that no one can achieve great results by themselves.

Why are emotional intelligence and humility so important in management?

Omar Mendoza believes that management should possess emotional intelligence and humility. He advocates for a flat organizational structure where the CEO is seen as just another team player with different functions. He emphasizes execution, spending 20% of his time planning and thinking creatively and 80% on execution. Furthermore, he values turning ideas into reality and learning from mistakes.

His experience in integrating various processes and operations within the company and working abroad has prepared him for his current role. Under the leadership of our guest, HDI Global México aims to increase its product range and segments and expand its geographic presence.
