Download A Spy's Guide to Strategy AudioBook Free
When you're a spy, you visit a lot of strategies. It's your task to see grand strategies. Regional strategies. National strategies. Most of all, individual strategies. It's your task to see them and to understand them, because that's how you understand when threats exist. To identify hazards, you're infiltrating an enemy's organization. You're figuring out who's making decisions. And who isn't. You're collecting brains on what they know. And what they don't know. You're figuring out their plans. Whether they mean you harm or don't. Whether they're a menace. Whether they're going to attack. Preferably, before it's done. You're uncovering the enemy's strategy. That is the job of the spy. But it is not only enemies' strategies you see. You're also speaking with allies who've strategies of their own. You're understanding what they need. What they don't. Hopefully, they'll let you know what their strategy is. But sometimes, they don't. Then, there's your side's strategy. Your side's strategy is why you're a spy. It's why they send you to international countries and back alleys and diplomatic receptions. You're there to serve your side's strategy. When you're a spy, you have a leading row seat to a lot of strategies. Therefore you see some strategies be successful. And you also see a lot more strategies fail. Sometimes, a strategy fails because of logistics. Or because the adversary strikes first. Or because the strategy was overtaken by incidents. Or because it was made outdated by inaction. But most strategies fail early. Most strategies fail before a turmoil starts off. Most strategies fail before an alliance is developed. Before even battle is declared. Most strategies fail because they're made the wrong way.
