Show Notes

In this inaugural Reflecting Pool podcast, host Bijan Karimi talks to USCG Lt. Chris Kimrey (CHDS Master’s cohort 1402) about how emerging problems often surprise lawmakers and agency officials which can result in rapid, reactive governance. Chris talks about re-purposing physics equations to quantify the primary characteristics that influence the emergence of attention pertaining to a crisis and how he developed a repeatable model whereby an emerging crisis can be evaluated by its characteristics to predict the likely reaction of government.
