Welcome to RIMScast. Your host is Justin Smulison, Business Content Manager at RIMS, the Risk and Insurance Management Society.
This week’s guest on RIMScast is Debra Jasper, founder and CEO of Mindset Digital, a firm that creates dopamine-generating, gamified compliance training (yes, that is a thing) for thousands of professionals in the highly-regulated insurance, banking and healthcare fields. She will be interacting with thousands of RIMS members in Denver when she delivers the opening keynote address at RIMS 2020 on May 4th! Debra founded Mindset Digital a decade ago to ensure organizations can compete in a fast-forward digital world—in a way that mitigates risk while driving innovation.
Today, Justin and Debra will be discussing technology, disruption, social media, and communication. She’s got a lot of great information on the top challenges that risk professionals and students will face in 2020, how to effectively convey your message to your audience, and the kind of language you should avoid when it comes to getting your message out there. Tune in to hear some of the key highlights from her teachings that apply to the risk management and insurance industries, the importance of communication, and more!
