Show Notes

Our nation’s public institutions are failing to be the proactive, thoughtful, strategic forces for good that they were founded to be. As a result, our society is currently incapable of effectively identifying and addressing our most pressing challenges, threats, and needs.

Rethinking aims to provide those who work in public institutions or whose work relates to community and public problems, access to a completely nonpartisan, thoughtful, and critical place to question everything and develop practical real-world solutions to some of our most pressing needs.

From serving as mayor (non party affiliated) of his hometown at age 23, a municipal business administrator, founder of a digital consulting firm, an emergency management director and volunteer EMT, and as a graduate level adjunct professor, management consultant, mentor and speaker, Alex Torpey brings together his diverse experiences to provide us a platform to rethink the future of our communities, our republic, and ourselves.
