New Leadership Interview, Ed Pudlowski
May 2, 2025
After years of taking on progressively more challenging roles in large insurance and consulting firms, Ed launched his own company in 2017 to pursue a long-standing goal of having more control and tackling underserved market needs. His journey was shaped by a passion for solving complex problems, a desire for efficiency, and lessons learned from both sidetracked ventures and leadership experiences. He emphasizes the importance of building a strong personal brand, maintaining professional relationships, and crafting a clear value proposition—highlighted by how one networking encounter led to multiple clients. Finding deep personal satisfaction in guiding the next generation, Ed encourages young actuaries to invest early in relationships and seek out mentors.
