Chris Meidt (Former redskins qb coach & CEO of North risk partners)
My guest on this episode is a former NFL coach and current CEO of North Risk Partners named Chris Meidt. Chris is known as the Ted Lasso of Insurance.
The reason he's called Ted Lasso is because he started his career as a football coach, and while Ted went from football to soccer, Chris transitioned from football to insurance.
In his 7 years in the insurance industry, he's been incredibly successful. After joining North Risk in 2014, he quickly took over as CEO. Since that time, the firm has more than tripled its revenue, going from $20M in revenue to about $75M in revenue.
