Six weeks into 2026 is the right moment to pause and assess whether your resilience program is aligned with how your organization is actually operating today. In this episode of the Managing Uncertainty Podcast, Bryan Strawser challenges leaders to revalidate their risk landscape, critical process priorities, and crisis readiness before the year accelerates. Early-year course correction is far easier than mid-year crisis recovery.
Bryan outlines the key questions every resilience leader should be asking now, from whether your Business Impact Analysis still reflects reality to whether your exercise calendar targets enterprise-level risk. He also explores how cyber threats, geopolitical instability, and operational change may have already shifted your exposure profile. This episode reinforces the importance of aligning resilience strategy with executive priorities.
Drawing on Bryghtpath’s experience working with complex organizations, Bryan provides a practical 90-day focus plan to strengthen crisis management, business continuity, and executive preparedness. The message is clear: resilience capability must be actively maintained, tested, and aligned with strategy. Six weeks into the year is your opportunity to ensure confidence before disruption tests your organization.
