Strategic intelligence deals with national or corporate long-term strategic issues. It operates simultaneously with three functionalities: intelligence, strategic foresight, and visionary management. Its customers are senior policy-makers in versatile organisations capable of strategically impacting the game in which they are involved.

This book explores opportunities to enhance strategic intelligence capabil-ities especially in policy-making and helps to understand how the princi-ples of strategic intelligence could be utilised within the intelligence com-munity and its practices. In particular, the book attempts to answer “how we could bridge the gap between the prevailing theory of intelligence pro-cesses and its actual practice” and “how intelligence could better bring right-time data for policy-makers.” In addition, the book studies how fore-sight work could be developed towards strategic intelligence so that it would better serve both intelligence community and policy-making.
