"Maccoby successfully demonstrates that strategic intelligence is essential to transform an organization from a bureaucracy into an agile learning organization poised to capitalize on innovation in the markets of today and tomorrow. Even more usefully, he shows readers how to develop it." -- Research-Technology Management
"Beautifully written, rich in ideas, and thought-provoking." -- Judith Spitz, CIO, Verizon
"I think this book is great! It is well-written with emphasis on the importance of companies and their employees being open to learning." -- Salvatore R. Maddi, Professor of Psychology and Social Behavior, University of California
"This book is a nice summary of Maccobys work over several decades but also an additional value added where he adds concepts and tools." -- Berth Jönsson, Former HR VP of Volvo
"This integrates Maccobys personal experiences with the general/teachable lessons he derived from them. The two levels play off each other well and keep the book moving along briskly. The whole builds a multi - layered picture of organizations that fully use human capacity." -- Charles Heckscher, Professor of Labor Studies and Employment Relations, Rutgers University
"We live in a repeating context of unexpected happenings where the practice of strategic intelligence is always under constant demand. The next time I am invited to teach undergraduates or graduate students at the universities in Pittsburgh or elsewhere, I will plan to have ^lStrategic Intelligence as one of the significant texts to enhance my course on "Leadership Ethics in a global society." -- Carnegie Samuel Calian, President Emeritus, Pittsburgh Theological Seminary
