EP 9: Open Innovation, Remote Working, Gig Economy, and Metrics that Matter Now with Mike Morris of Topcoder

In this episode of Inside Access Control, I catch up with Mike Morris, CEO of Topcoder. Topcoder was launched in 2001 and set out to answer two questions. 1. Could they create a transparent and reputable rating system for developers akin to the famous ranking method used in the world of chess? 2. Could enterprises access these developers on demand to simplify and speed the way they got digital work done? With the recent crisis and everyone working for home, I thought it would be a good idea to check in with someone who has been working like this for a long time and also runs a platform of over 1.5 million member developers, designers, data scientists, and engineers working around the globe every day.  We also knew he'd have great insights and advice on how to set your company up for success and discuss what metrics matter now.
