Commander-in-Chief Podcast - Episode 9 - ARIEL ASSARAF of CORALOGIX

How Data Runs the World (with Some Rich Real-Life Examples); Hungry > Humble > Smart as a Company Culture

In this episode: In this conversation (just WOW), Ariel and I went REALLY deep into some unexpected treasure caves:

  • How he took an unexpected path from within Israeli Army Unit 8200 to building Coralogix

  • Why every problem in the world today is really a data problem

  • Why the exponentiality of software matters so much - think maintenance, performance, security

  • Scaling impact by empowering software companies to find and leverage patterns from their data

  • How Israel’s Internal Security Service (Shabak) revolutionized intelligence about terror attacks (leading to 99%+ prevention, in due time) through data

  • Insights into how the vaunted 8200 Unit works to mold brilliant young people into top-notch decision makers, product owners and startup founders before they’re even 21 by shortening feedback loops. (Imagine wasting 25 new computers just to solve a logistical problem, saving countless lives).

  • Hungry > Humble > Smart (in that order) with constant feedback as a Company Culture — and its Lessons

  • Why he’s never fired anyone since starting the company (!!)

  • How Talmudic and Mishnaic wisdom pervades his management principles — and even how meetings are run at Coralogix

Enjoy!
