This book by a former Chief of the Intelligence Bureau (IB) is the first on the subject of applied intelligence. Today, business and other organizations have to rely increasingly on intelligence for their success. The Information Age mandates that only those who are well informed will prosper. A leader’s standing as well as the competitiveness of an organization is defined by their capacity to take information-based decisions. Intelligence is exclusive information that helps shape decision making by an organization to ensure competitive advantage. It enables business organizations in particular to detect opportunities or sense potential threats. This book deals with the entire spectrum of sourcing of such information from tapping the knowledge that exists within an organization to a competent analysis of the open information available outside. It builds the thesis that we are transiting from the Information Age to the Age of Intelligence. The book emphasizes the need to incorporate information-handling in Business Management courses. The need of the hour, it maintains, is to have information savvy managers. It offers useful guidelines on enriching the course content in this particular sphere.
