Have you ever attended a competitive intelligence conference, presentation or training course and been told that tactical intelligence is not important? That it’s not of high value? That it’s not true competitive intelligence?
If you have heard this before, you’ll want to attend this webinar as two veteran intelligence practitioners dispel this notion and share their experiences on how tactical intelligence often served as a critical component and foundation of their overall intelligence efforts. They will also discuss how building and sustaining an effective intelligence operation that supports a company’s innovation process and strategic direction in a timely and actionable fashion does in fact require a focus on various tactical intelligence activities. As a result, many of us will realize it’s time to rethink how we approach competitive intelligence.
Learning objectives:
Why tactical intelligence is important to strategic innovation
Why innovation impacts competitive intelligence
How to rethink your approach to competitive intelligence
Finally, Alysse and Jason will offer a special sneak-preview of the agenda they have put together as co-chairs for the next RECONVERGE:G2 Intelligence Leadership Symposium taking place in Minneapolis 16-18 September. Special pricing ends in just a few days.
