Mistake # 1: True or False? Competitive intelligence is information or facts about competitors and the more, the better.
It is NOT.
Answer: False!
![Page 3: The winning ci process slideshare](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042908/58ec884c1a28ab21678b45d7/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Information in itself has no value. A lot of data are just noise (especially today). Competitors’ minutiae matter little.

Mistake # 2: True or False? Effective CI programs must be formalized, must grow headcount, gain more
resources, and measure their ROI by outputs.
Answer: False!

Most effective CI programs
• Affect management thinking via few effective organizational design steps
• Can never be measured directly (it’s not about productivity)
• Work by continuous dialogue but only with most relevant users
• “Lone Rangers” or very small staff (3-4 for entire organization) in the right place

Mistake # 3: True of False? The CI process must first answer all management questions
Answer: Double false!
This is the surest way to get the ax!

Gilad’s Organizational CI Model: lessons from the last 30 years of practice
• Always start from the real use. Never focus on producing more.
• Follow closely Jack Welch’s strategy making process. You fail here and CI will be useless.

Biggest mistake that will cost you your job: When you bring production mindset to a usage-based environment, you play the wrong game!
