đ Lyft's Bold New Strategy (with CEO David Risher)
Manage episode 520448761 series 2311076
Lyftâs comeback story ain't Uberâs playbook â itâs something different.
David Risher, Amazon employee #37 and now Lyftâs CEO, joins us to break down the strategy driving Lyftâs turnaround.
This guy has a total TBOY vibe, he's doubled Lyft's stock price, and reveals what proposing to his wife taught him about management (no joke).
Oh, and this Lyft CEO... also drives for Lyft.
But there's so much more. In this interview, David tells us all about:
⢠His 100-day plan to refocus Lyft on riders and drivers
⢠How driver cancellations fell from ~15% to ~4.5%
⢠The story behind Women+ Connect and Lyft Silver
⢠Lyftâs âsituationshipâ with Waymo (and where self-driving cars fit)
⢠Why he still drives Lyft â and what he learns from chit-chatting with you in the backseat.
