Summary

A critical figure in America’s Cold War intelligence operations, Peter Earnest knows the surprising similarities between what the Central Intelligence Agency does to coordinate operations and protect the country and what any smart organization can do to protect its bottom line. Now, in this unprecedented book, he’s partnering with bestselling author Maryann Karinch to demonstrate what you and your organization can learn from how the CIA does business. Filled with fascinating and instructive examples from CIA operations and the business world, Business Confidential offers insights into the Agency’s extraordinary screening, testing, and training practices; methods for supporting employee retention; creative and agile problem-solving strategies; and methods for establishing mission-focused outcomes. You’ll learn skills like how to build trust, communicate clearly, work as a team, make tough decisions, succeed in both friendly and hostile territory, and--sometimes--cut your losses.Rather than drawing from restrictive blueprints, the book vividly illustrates the value of the intelligence mindset in today’s unpredictable corporate landscape. With insider strategies from one of the world’s smartest intelligence organizations, you’ll be equipped with the intel you need to propel your team to success.

    The Financial Advisor’s Definitive Guide to Niche Marketing
    
    In Uncomparable, veteran financial services marketing consultant Kristen Luke challenges the traditional concept of striving to be the best financial advisor in the industry. Instead, encourages financial advisors to become "uncomparable" by owning a niche and establishing themselves as an expert in solving one problem for one type of client. In this book, Luke argues that being "better" than the competition is not enough because you can be surpassed by other financial advisors who add just one additional service or implement a slightly superior approach.
    
    In contrast, by positioning yourself as unique and focusing on developing and promoting your expertise to a narrow set of clients, you become uncomparable and stand out as a leader in your space.
    
    This book offers practical advice to help you identify your niche and build your marketing strategy to attract your ideal clientele. With a refreshing perspective on business differentiation and actionable steps for standing out in a crowded marketplace, Uncomparable will allow you to find your path to marketing success.
