Aptly worded Arik,

I don't have a profile in courage to share off the top of my head but I will suggest that the ability to put courage to work communicating skeptical insights depends highly on the self-esteem - or inversely proportioned narcissism - of your client...

This has been an interesting discussion. I have done some thinking about it and wonder if the differentiation between PI and CI methods is about the end result.
CI methods lead to analysis and deliverables that provide a company with actionable r...
Now, it seems that as if all CI practitioners were the "good ones", and PI practitioners "the evil ones". Then, (if we suppose that people in general have mostly good intentions and moral) why would "the World" (i.e. businesses or citizens) still ...

Nice to see we are getting some members joining from New Zealand. To introduce myself, I am the Managing Direct of Infoready who are a boutique consultancy that specialise in Information Management in particular CI, BI and Data Management. My particular specialisation is in technology / applications, solutions and process to enable Information Management (focussing mainly on CI at the moment). A few of us in the CI domain are currently trying to up our CI community in Australia and New Zealand so we can all help each other implement and operate world class CI functions. I also have a keen interest and lots of experience in Telco's in Australia. Let me know if there is anything I can help you out with. I would also be keen to hear about the CI function at Telecom NZ, and what software or technologies you use.
