<h3><span style=”color: #ba372a;”><strong>Google Gemini: Scheduled Actions For Scenario-Based Risk Alerts</strong></span></h3>
<h3><strong>What Problem Does This Solve?</strong></h3>
<p><span style=”font-weight: 400;”>Senior leaders are expected to stay ahead of risks across multiple initiatives, supply chain volatility, cybersecurity threats, regulatory changes, and reputational issues, while simultaneously making high-stakes strategic decisions.</span></p>
<p><span style=”font-weight: 400;”>Manually monitoring internal updates in Google Drive alongside external signals from news or social platforms is time-intensive and unreliable. Important warning signs are often missed, leading to delayed responses, cost overruns, or missed opportunities.</span></p>
<p><span style=”font-weight: 400;”>Google Gemini’s Scheduled Actions capability addresses this by automating recurring or one-time risk monitoring tasks and delivering structured, actionable insights directly to leaders.</span></p>
<h3><strong>How To Access</strong></h3>
<p><span style=”font-weight: 400;”>Available via <em>gemini.google.com</em></span></p>
<h3><strong>What Gemini’s Scheduled Actions Help You Do</strong></h3>
<ul>
<li><strong> Automate risk monitoring: </strong><span style=”font-weight: 400;”>Set recurring reviews for key projects using internal documents and external signals.</span></li>
<li><strong> Stay proactive: </strong><span style=”font-weight: 400;”>Receive early alerts with mitigation recommendations before issues escalate.</span></li>
<li><strong> Save leadership time: </strong><span style=”font-weight: 400;”>Eliminate manual tracking and synthesis of updates across multiple sources.</span></li>
</ul>
<h3><strong>Example</strong></h3>
<p><span style=”font-weight: 400;”>A CEO is overseeing a global product launch where supply delays or negative sentiment could derail timelines.</span></p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Step 1:</strong><span style=”font-weight: 400;”> Open Gemini (app or web).</span></li>
<li><strong>Step 2:</strong><span style=”font-weight: 400;”> Enter a prompt such as: </span><em><span style=”font-weight: 400;”>“Every Tuesday at 10 AM, review my Google Drive folder ‘Product Launch’ and scan news and X for risks like supply chain issues. Summarise risks to my top three initiatives with mitigation suggestions and email the report.”</span></em></li>
<li><strong>Step 3:</strong><span style=”font-weight: 400;”> Submit and confirm the <em>Scheduled Action</em>.</span></li>
<li><strong>Step 4:</strong><span style=”font-weight: 400;”> Edit later via Profile Menu or <em>Settings → Scheduled Actions</em>.</span></li>

<h3><strong>What Problem Does Gemini 2.5 Pro Solve?</strong></h3>
<p><span style=”font-weight: 400;”>In finance and operations, validating data across multiple PDFs is a persistent bottleneck. Processes like invoice matching require cross-checking invoices, purchase orders, and goods receipt notes, often across hundreds of transactions.</span></p>

<p><span style=”font-weight: 400;”>Using a structured prompt, Gemini processes:</span><span style=”font-weight: 400;”><br /></span></p>
