No, productivity is not tied to working in an office. I know because I manage 300 remote employees at a company with revenue that doubles each year. Accelerant has raised hundreds of millions of dollars in investment. We are step by step enacting a paradigm shift in the specialty insurance industry, insurance that helps secure vital elements of our society. And we have championed our employees working remotely since our founding in 2018. When we started Accelerant about seven years ago, it was an effort borne of our exasperation with an insurance industry that operated much the same way as when I entered the field in the 1980s. As someone looking to do the work better for our Members, getting a big office was not high on our list of early priorities. Then it disappeared from the list altogether. I’ve seen the myth of in-office work, the virtue of a butts in seats culture, an “I need to see people working” executive-mentality, rise and fall and rise again. I’m here to tell you, it’s all a myth. Sure, some projects or problems may be quicker to hash out in-person. Of course, it’s nice and rewarding to see colleagues outside of a laptop screen. But an office full of employees rushing around, or fighting for conference room space, or often (way too often) coming into an office simply to be on video meetings all day – that, my friends, has nothing to do with a company’s success. And frankly, it limits the global talent you can find when you need them in a reasonable commuting radius. At Accelerant, where every employee is remote, we have seen revenue climb every year since we started. We have a Net Promoter Score of 89 (about eight times higher than the insurance industry average). We're profitable. And our hundreds of employees working all over the world made that happen. A secret that most CEO’s will never give up is that they, too, prefer remote work! And they know that most of their employees are just as productive, just as capable, just as dedicated working from their home office as they are in an office that probably takes an hour or more out of what could be part of their work day to simply arrive at. I see this truth every day as a CEO. Data and research backs it up. The Bureau of Labor Statistics noted in a thorough report there is “little relationship between labor productivity and the ability of workers in an industry to work entirely remotely.” When there is a relationship found between the two, it veers toward higher worker productivity for no additional compensation. Even a hybrid model means your employees are less miserable, and less likely to quit, a smaller Stanford study found. All that to say, Accelerant is growing, profitable, and hiring for dozens of fully-remote jobs in engineering, data analytics, management, finance, product design, and more. Join us in the future of work.

Yesterday, we talked about the importance of data grain—having the right level of detail to make smarter decisions. Too much data can create noise. Too little can leave gaps. Finding the balance between data wants and data needs is key for MGAs looking to grow profitably. As an MGA, what’s the biggest challenge you face when it comes to using data effectively?

We’re surrounded by more data than ever—but more doesn’t always mean better. The real challenge is knowing what’s useful and what’s just noise. That’s where data grain comes in. Get too much detail, and you’re drowning in complexity. Too little, and you miss key insights. The right level of granularity can make all the difference—helping MGAs and risk capital providers make faster, smarter, and more profitable decisions. Our latest blog explores how data grain impacts everything from underwriting to claims and why finding the right balance is key to driving growth. Read more: https://lnkd.in/gq2Z-equ
