Welcome to our first episode of New Thinking: Leaders, hosted by Zorianna Kit.

Joining her is Aaron Painter, the CEO of Nametag Inc., the company that invented "Sign in with ID" as a more secure alternative to passwords. Aaron explains how Nametag came to be, and looks back on his days working at Microsoft as a formative time to his capabilities today.

Nametag is just a few years old but already making an impact on the machinery of personal identification worldwide.

The topics Zorianna and Aaron discuss are:

  • The vast problems with personal identification and how Nametag solves it
  • Aaron’s career and his philosophy of leading by listening
  • Embracing the new remote-working world
  • Discussing anonymity vs identification, and online harassment
  • Aaron’s definition of what ‘New Thinking’ means to him
