Today, we’re announcing the launch of a new product – The Twin Cities Weekly Intelligence & Threat Briefing.

Leaders and small business owners are constantly confronted with challenges from many different directions.

Protests. Terrorism threats. Road construction. Riots. Super Bowl 52. New legislation. Crime in your neighborhood.

It creates an ever-uncertain environment that surrounds your business.

We’ve talked in previous episodes of our podcast about the need to have a “radar screen” that helps your organization understand, categorize, and respond to inbound threats to your organization – for companies, non-profits, and political campaigns operating in the Twin Cities, the Twin Cities Weekly Briefing is intended to be that radar screen.

In this special episode of the Managing Uncertainty Podcast, Bryghtpath Principal & CEO Bryan Strawser, along with Senior Consultant Jennifer Otremba, talk about the background, context, and launch of the Twin Cities Weekly Briefing.

To make the briefing happen, our team of experts filters through hundreds of local, national, and global news sources – along with proprietary, government, and open-source intelligence resources – to assemble a 10-12 page weekly briefing that arrives in your in-box as a PDF attachment.

In the Weekly Briefing you’ll find information about urgent, emerging threats locally, large local protests, recent significant criminal or threat incidents, planned road construction & traffic issues, upcoming major events, and national / global risks or threats that have a local connection.

Learn more by clicking here to see the product page for this exciting new subscription product! You’ll find a sample of the current week’s briefing along with more information and a detailed fact sheet to help you in your evaluation and decision.

I used to send work emails at one and 2:00 in the morning and then again at five and 6:00 in morning. I’m a night owl. I honestly do my most creative work at night.
