Tom Burroughs: Chief Technology Officer, Synergy Cloud: Building a frictionless claims process (247)

This week we’re back talking to Synergy Cloud - it's about claims - and Matthew Grant is talking to Tom Burroughs, Chief Technology Officer, the intrapreneur within the parent company Claims Consortium Group creating a new product and a new business. We cover a range of topics relevant to anyone building or using software, not just in claims, including:

• What insurance can learn from the travel industry
• How to build technology in collaboration with the customer
• It plugs but does it play? Tips for finding the best integrations tools for your product
• Designing with your customer’s customer in mind
• Digital collaboration today in a post-pandemic world

To learn more about what you should value when you are developing software, podcast guest Tom recommends the Agile Manifesto.
