Adopting new technology quickly is the name of the game in fintech, but not everyone in your organization—including your customers—will be on board at first. In this episode, Michael Praeger sits down with Blake Sanford, VP of Association & Strategic Partners at Property Management, Inc. (PMI), to discuss how he’s led PMI’s franchise owners through technology advancements. Plus, his daily and weekly routines he follows to show up well as a leader.
Some key takeaways from this episode include:
Automations are not just about cutting down teams, they’re about making the most of the time your team has and maximizing what they can achieve in a day. Beyond automation, strategic partnerships can also make your teams more efficient.
You need people in your organization that are curious about new technologies, and people who are smarter than you. Don’t let your ego get in the way of bringing top talent to the table.
As the leader of your organization, you have to take great care of yourself. Prioritizing sleep, exercise, and intentional rest is going to help you show up as the best version of yourself, and it has a ripple effect on your team as well.
