Now that's pretty interesting - what does Sharia say about competition in general and CI practices specifically - even "ethical" ones which might not have the best interests of the counter-party at heart?
I remember his presentation too - great stuff!
Brilliant Sheila - thanks - let me know if you ever want to try and produce that independently - I bet it would sell very well in fact. Perhaps we could co-produce a workshop in the UK sometime in 2010 together? I'd love to work with you in someth...
I was just wondering about this myself! Great discussion to add - I've never used it myself but surely there must be somebody here who has?

Vivek Raghuvanshi said… - Dear Arik,
First and foremost I am not a Muslim. Secondly, I am not advocating any religious ideology or propogating any religious ideas.
In Intelligence we have Active Intelligence.
Active Intelligence = Human Intelligence
Human Intellegence for extraction uses MICE .
MICE = Money, Ideology, Compromise, Ego
Ideology = Political Ideology and Religious Ideology and Individual Ideology
In Religious Ideology, post September 11 terrorist attacks, Islam is perceived as a Radical Ideology.
Because of this perception, the terrorist and vested interest affect Foreign Investments in emerging markets.
If the Western Super Powers are able to create a positive perception of Democracy and Christianity using the tool of Social Engineering then we can mitigate the risks of Globalization for International businesses.
Islam is not my religious belief nor my religious ideology. My blog post was an attempt to mitigate risks for Christian expats worldwide.
Sorry to have offended you.
Regards
