Show Notes

This week we are rejoined by one of my favorite Washington insiders, Bruce Mehlman.  Bruce heads Mehlman, Castignetti, Rosen and Thomas, a premier inside the Beltway lobbying firm, that helps Fortune 500 companies and innovative startups understand, anticipate and navigate ever-evolving policy, environment and political trends, likely to impact the global marketplace.

Bruce joins us for a look back on the projections he made during his visit in August of 2020, as well as for a look ahead.  We’ll talk about today's political landscape, 100 days into the Biden presidency and some of the many changes ahead. 

Bruce will tell us, that while things may feel very different now, as compared to the past four years, according to data, things are very much the same.  When he joined us last August, as a nation we were deep into lockdown and both our business and persosnal lives seemed very uncertain. 

His quarterly updates on political trends are widely read by business leaders and political observers across the country and have been frequently covered in leading publications, including the Washington Post, Axios, Politico, CNN, Fortune, and the Daily Caller and more recently, right here, on Franchise Today!
