The Unit
A task force assembled per mandate. Governance stays constant. Execution modules are added only when needed.
Selective intake. Confidential by default.
What this is
Signal operates as the Strategic Communications unit powered by Find Below Strategy and Intelligence. We assemble a task force per mandate to deliver decision-grade outputs under documented governance.
How we assemble a task force
The mandate defines the team. We start with a stable governance core, then add modules based on risk surface, stakeholder complexity, and execution needs.
Define the mandate and success signals
Clarify scope, constraints, and what "done" looks like.
Map stakeholders and risk surface
Identify who matters, what they perceive, and where exposure exists.
Assemble the task force and set decision rights
Match capability to mandate, establish governance.
The core unit
The core unit is consistent across mandates. Its role is to keep the work governed, documented, and defensible under scrutiny.
Core roles
- —Strategy and Governance Lead
- —Communications Strategy Lead
- —Operations Lead
- —Alliances Coordination
Core outputs
- 01Decision package structure and sequencing
- 02Governance model with approvals and escalation
- 03Executive brief packs and message hierarchy
- 04Risk surface controls to prevent drift and contradiction
Execution modules
Execution is included when it serves the mandate and reduces risk through control. Modules are added only as needed.
Working principles
- —Confidential by default
- —Selective intake
- —Documented decisions and approval governance
- —Controlled disclosure boundaries
- —Measured outcomes, not vanity metrics
Where this model fits
This operating model performs best in regulated, capital-intensive, multi-stakeholder, cross-border environments where communications is a governance problem.
