ay for Bobbie “Problem Solver” Shrivastav!! She’s your classic hardworking, innovationdriving buckaroo who’s not afraid to share the credit with her team. Shrivastav dabbled in a few different industries, and even launched a previous company before finding her true calling in insurtech.
And now she’s the co-founder of multiple award-winning Benekiva “We were able to take learnings from our previous start-up and incorporate them in Benekiva”, she comments. Nice one Shrivastav!
Breaking out of the technology shackles to solve real problems With an unshakable focus on insurance claims, Shrivastav & Co are on a mission to empower both the customers and the insurance firms. “The sweetest ffnews.com
moment is that we have built something that is positive for customer experience for end-users along with operations, whom always get left behind when it comes to new technology and processes”, she explains. Using a “triple threat” model, this bad-ass buckaroo has been able to cut through the faff, and create a razor-sharp solution to frustrating problems. “The triple threat model involves ensuring that the individual is solutions focused – (architecture, product development, business analysis background), has a technical background to understand complexities of a large and complex organisation (former tech lead, developer, integration), and has a project management background (not a task manager but true change management)”, she elaborates. “Together, we were able to tackle the problem and build a company out of it which is now 60 people strong serving over 15 clients and growing in less than 4 years”, she adds.
Shrivastav’s solution busted out from the shackles of insurance technology and reclaimed (Yay! Pun!) some much-needed mobility for the users.
And being super gracious about it Getting this buckaroo to speak about herself was hard-going. Nearly every question was answered with a credit or reference to those around her. “Each one of us brings unique skill-sets and together”, Shrivastav elaborates. “I’m very proud to have recruited such a strong team of leaders which will allow us to continue our growth projection”. All leaders should strive to be as gracious as Shrivastav… for fintech writers like us too, it’s super refreshing. They say ‘teamwork makes the dream work’ – well, a lot of dads tend to say that – but we also think leaders with a heart are super smart. We love that she shares the love and credits her co-workers – seriously, there isn’t enough of that in finance. For being super modest and bloody amazing, we’re super proud to welcome Bobbie “Problem Solver” Shrivastav!
