The Rebekah Panepinto Project

This episode of The Rebekah Panepinto Project features a conversation with Gyre Renwick, Chief Operating Officer at Modern Health. Modern health is the first global one-stop platform that provides mental health solutions for employees and all their well-being needs.

In today's time, employers and employees are starting to get more engaged in mental health care in the work environment. Gyre explains the role of Modern Health in breaking barriers of access and providing resources to help individuals take more proactive care of their mental health.

Gyre discusses the effect of mental health solutions in fostering a productive and overall positive work environment. He also discusses his transition to operations roles and taking on different challenges in and outside of work.

QUOTES

Gyre: "There's not a single job that I got that was not about a relationship I had with someone, either a personal or professional relationship. I always try to invest a lot in just 'people first' and I really value the relationships I have."

Gyre: "Unfortunately, there's not enough therapists in the world to actually address the mental needs of everyone. So if you allow everyone to get therapy and push everyone to therapy, it's actually not good for the whole ecosystem. That's why it creates this backlog of those that need the care but can't have it."

Gyre: "Now, that is a really personal relationship that becomes incredibly powerful. It's not going to always be the best match as well. That's the nice thing is that you can come to Modern Health, get matched with a coach or therapist, and if it is isn't the right fit we can help rematch you."

Gyre: "You're almost like an air traffic controller where you're not the one flying every single plane out there but you're helping orchestrate all these different pieces of it. I love that view of trying to have a broader impact and having a broader charter."

HIGHLIGHTS

• Bringing digital transformation to the legal space
• Digital courtrooms: The need to migrate from paper to digital
• AI algorithms can be skewed by bad or biased data
• The human cloud: Hire competitive freelancers for the culture fit 
• Servant leaders and flattening the organizational hierarchy 

QUOTES

Matt: "We're seeing definitely a tilt toward clients demanding more from value and not willing to pay for inefficiencies. And that's been a slow trend but it's definitely helping with transformation because you just can't rest on your laurels the way we could, as an industry, before."

Matt: "They're only looking at the data they're presented, so that problems you could run into is you're giving it data that's already slanted in a particular way because you're trying to intentionally bias the results direction you want it to go, or the data sample you have is just bad."

Matt: "He has 3 questions that he asks every person and it's why you, why us, and, the third one... it's sort of like what do you get excited about or what are you excited about this project for. And so it's very much just about the personality and the connection because, in general, the credentials are there to complete the work. It's more about the fit."

Matt: "I don't think leadership necessarily is a hierarchy in the not so distant future. I think it's actually becomes another skill and another resource. Like you need people that are thinking about strategy, that are guiding the organization, that are managing the people side of that. But that is another role that is on par and parallel with everybody else."

QUOTES

Lee: "Why should they have ten different systems? What if they just create an industry standard? And so that was something that we worked very closely on at Microsoft was helping this industry and many others that we did similar projects with to build a sort of industry consortium."

Lee: "We want to help you figure out what to be querying of your data. You might not even know the questions to ask, and that's a big part of what we do is help you figure out what are the questions to ask. Where should you be focusing your time and attention?"

Lee: "I'm a big believer, in general, that one of the most valuable skills you can have is just being able to predict the future with a higher degree of accuracy than the next person can. I'm a big believer that the way that you build out that muscle is by understanding the past and by understanding people."

Lee: "Sales is education and it's about understanding the people that you're speaking to, empathizing with them, and then being able to educate them on why this is good. The sale happens almost as an afterthought. It happens automatically if you can show someone the value of your product."

HIGHLIGHTS

QUOTES

Russ: "A lot of those (claims) processes are still batch-driven, latent kind of processes. So you end up on the back end of that process with a lot of vendors who do things that you and I are both familiar with like payment integrity, like coordination of benefits, like overpayment recovery."

Russ: "Our vision for all of this, we think we can really help drive more efficiency and more effective in a more transparent systems is to look downstream at those latent processes and move that workflow up all the way into what we would call our gateway, so really to the point where we are now interacting in real time with the provider around their claim." 

Russ: "Do the right thing. I love the expression integrity is what you do when nobody's looking. And it is. And I think, A, that's how I was raised and B, healthcare is a very small universe... It's a small sector. If you're not ethical, high integrity person, that's well known and it's not good for your company or your career."

HIGHLIGHTS

• Growing in corporate but being inspired to become an entrepreneur
• WizeNoze is an aggregator of educational information
• Determining knowledge suitability with AI and human teachers 
• Enabling exploratory education instead of traditional curriculum-based learning 

QUOTES

Diane: "The current way of creating content is very expensive, it's very time-consuming, and the moment you create something, it's already outdated. So why do you have to pay these amounts to create new content when it's already out there? Why not reuse the information that is there and offer it, obviously, for a much lower price?"

Diane: "If you give students a much broader library of knowledge that is suitable for their own learning skills, you enable them to search for their own interests much more, and then you are not only developing their knowledge, but you're also helping them develop their personality, their social skills, and to have a clear view of what they really, really like."

Diane: "I truly believe the moment you start to look at the things that are not possible, those things will happen. So I tend to obviously pay attention to it and not ignore them, but focus my energy on where growth, on where possibilities are, how to solve problems."
