Assignment Instructions
This assignment is a take-home essay assignment of 2 questions, 2-3 pages each, to test knowledge and assimilation of the course objectives. The use of required texts and readings from this course is mandatory and should be the primary information source, but you may use external sources to augment your analysis and help support your answers.
Question 1: Please Explain your model/vision of how indications and warning (I&W) systems and processes drive planning and decision-making at the strategic and tactical levels. Graphics/illustrations are allowed (encouraged!).
Question 2: Competitive Intelligence — which is the process of collecting, processing, exploiting, and disseminating intelligence on an organization’s products, customers, and competitors to drive corporate decision-making processes — is growing rather quickly. How would you, if tasked to do so, apply I&W processes to support corporate decision-making? What about other areas facing ‘warning problems’, such as cybersecurity?
