Renewals

Two colleagues, one feature, fifteen minutes. Janice hosts, Brian brings years from both sides of the table. The runway, the calendar, and the playbook that starts on time, built on notice windows rather than renewal dates. Recorded August 2026.

The first two minutes play for everyone. The full episode is available on request with a work email.
What this episode covers

The most expensive email of Brian's career was one that never arrived, the notice reminder. This episode is the corrected clock: the runway ordered by when action is required.

Live: the runway, the calendar of deadlines that actually bite, and the playbook that opens the work at ninety days out.
