After a relatively long Christmas break, we finally got back in the studio to talk about Northlands.

Our discussion was prompted by the resignation of President and CEO Richard Andersen on January 20. That’s a big change on its own, and we hear there are more on the way. At the root of the problem is that Northlands doesn’t seem to know what kind of organization it wants to be. Is it agriculturally-focused? Will it be the sports & entertainment destination, especially with the new downtown arena on the horizon?

Is it time for a complete reinvention of Northlands? What does the future of the organization look like? We discuss those questions and more.
