Competitive Intelligence Personnel Dilemma: Marketers or

[Роберт]

Re: The personnel dilemma in competitive intelligence: "marketers" or

I would also separate the areas of intelligence and counterintelligence. They are taught in different ways.
A banal example, I graduated from the TsPSS, this is separate from the police school. By orders it is considered that since the personnel of 7 can be involved in existing employees, they should be trained separately. And they work separately and there is more order.

Because in intelligence you are, for the most part, dependent on yourself in a hostile environment. And counterintelligence - you are operating at home.

Well, there is an extremely narrow specialization of each unit. They are precisely focused on solving specific narrow problems in a short time. Well, conspiracy is again necessary, which is why it is taught.
But you can’t transfer all this to the security service of the company.

So we come to the well-known statement

there are people and PEOPLE, i.e. who CAN, HAVE, WANT ....

And I would like to be a generalist in my field. For which I always learn new and open to him.

Similar thoughts visit me more and more. : D

This is how our military surgeons perform operations for almost any wounds, and in the US specialization (someone operates on his legs, someone's head: D)

As far as I remember military medicine from the course of the institute, this is a bit wrong. Operations of a certain level are really done by general surgeons. But, at the same time, there are specialized hospitals, and even more so specialized departments in hospitals. An ophthalmologist will not make a normal gastrectomy, and an abdominal surgeon will not extract a fragment from the eye with suturing of the sclera.

But, in principle, logic is applicable to the Security Council and the Kyrgyz Republic in the sense that one really needs to strive to be a universal. though from this two conclusions follow, which, in my opinion, should not be forgotten:

1. Any universal tool achieves "breadth of coverage" due to the loss of "depth". That is, as it were., Is able to do everything, but equally badly (compared to a specialized tool).

2. From paragraph 1 it follows that we must not forget to call a specialist in time.

Then in 99 percent of cases you can do it yourself, and in one - call the one you need. But! This one percent, as a rule, falls on problems that are extremely important for the enterprise. Sometimes vital. Therefore, we must not be late.

I know this from practice: my name is when a powerful hit is going on the company, incl. and in the information field. The information field is important in that it helps to force the public and officials to refuse to help the enterprise — to make it a defenseless victim. So, my name is often SBShniki. When they understand that this already requires narrow specialization and they can’t cope on their own, and losing is categorically unacceptable.

I meant field surgery.
Universal tools have already learned to do everything well.

About station wagons.
It’s like in wrestling or boxing. The larger the arsenal of tricks available to you, the better. All art in the ability to apply them in combination, "in conjunction." And the less time between receptions, the closer the result. It is simply impossible at the same time to solve directly opposite problems alone. : D

So I had her in mind. military medicine is built on the principle of staged treatment. I briefly described part of it. This is solved by medical sorting of the wounded.

Universal tools have already learned to do everything well.

If this were so, there would be no specialized space left. However, specialized tools rarely disappear, giving way to universal ones. Even the Kalashnikov assault rifle has many modifications

That is yes. But in real life, such a thing as experience plays a role. To get it, you have to face certain situations as much as possible. And there is such a thing as the rarity of situations. Many phenomena in the life of an enterprise may never occur or happen once. A station wagon simply cannot have experience with them in principle. The specialist, “imprisoned” for this - has such an experience. About that and speech.

Plus, there is such a thing as a person’s tendency to this or that type of work. someone is interested in developing a strategy and implementing it is boring. Someone sticks high on the fences of photography, but the hysteria arises from the thought of a minimal theory. Someone works better with people, and someone with documents. Etc.

That is why universality in practice has its limits. To strive for its expansion is useful and interesting, but to understand that sometimes it is urgent to call a narrow specialist is important

And you need to understand what kind of specialist to call ... Therefore, universality is needed.
Not a brigade from the village, but a specialist in information wars.

Yes

Re: The personnel dilemma in competitive intelligence: "marketers" or

Although the brigade from the village in some cases is very useful ...

In our country, for sure ...
