author:  Eric Garland 
description: <em>"Garland disabuses decision-makers of their false assumptions with a literary flair for illustrating the limits of our cult of expertise."</em> --Arik Johnson, chairman, AuroraWDC, co-founder of the Intelligence Collaborative<br /><br /><em>This book is one of the best I've ever read about the problems that practitioners and organizations encounter in trying to look out and ahead.</em><i></i> --Dr. Craig Fleisher, author of Analysis Without Paralysis<br /><br /><i></i><em> Eric Garland sticks a big needle in the inflated, self-important gurus with his evidence-based, down-to-earth, integrative--yet fun-loving--approach. </em><br /> --Tim Powell - author, Analyzing Your Competition<br /><br /><em>His sarcastic and somewhat sardonic delivery of these so-called "tips" are entertaining, educational, and unfortunately all-too disturbingly accurate in their portrayal of the decision making process. </em><i></i> --Earth Intelligence Network<br /><br />"<i>A funny and insightful look at how badly those working with the future, such as strategic planners, competitive intelligence professionals, war gamers, and futurologists, do what they are supposed to do, and what they should really be doing for their clients.</i>" - John McGonagle, <i>Competitive Intelligence Magazine</i>
