Serve. Add Value. Innovate. with Scott Stephenson

In this episode of Knowledgecast, host Jack Williams welcomes Scott Stephenson, the former CEO of Verisk, for an inspiring and wide-ranging discussion on leadership, purpose, and growth. Over more than two decades, Scott helped transform Verisk from a small data company into a global analytics leader — not through slogans or short-term strategies, but by consistently returning to three guiding principles: Serve. Add Value. Innovate. Scott shares how these values became the heartbeat of Verisk’s culture, shaping how the company serves customers, empowers employees, and invests in innovation. He also reflects on pivotal decisions that tested his resolve, moments that defined his leadership, and the lessons learned from leading through both success and crisis. With honesty and humility, Scott opens up about how faith, integrity, and an unwavering commitment to others became his foundation as a leader. Whether you lead a team, a company, or simply want to influence others with purpose, this conversation offers a roadmap for building culture, creating impact, and leading in a way that endures.
