Abstract
Andy Grove, author of Only the Paranoid Survive(Grove, 1998), posited that managers, mired either in past or present, confront a cloud in the head as they struggle to make sense of conflicting information in an attempt to discern the emerging future. In an era of information overload and reduced attention spans, it is critical for managers to learn how to detect early warning signals that are flying at low altitude that are missed while being immersed in the daily operating details of the business.
