In a world awash in information, the advantage no longer belongs to those who know the most. It belongs to those who know what matters.
Every day, business leaders, investors, and professionals make decisions with incomplete information. Critical facts remain hidden. Incentives are misunderstood. Assumptions go unchallenged. The result is missed opportunities, avoidable risks, and costly surprises.
In Open Secrets, corporate intelligence advisor Steven Fox and award-winning author Darrell Hartman guide readers towards an “intelligence mindset” that will enable them to gather information, build influence, and make better decisions when the stakes are highest.
Steven Fox has advised companies facing government seizures, worked in the world’s toughest countries, navigated corruption risks, and dealt with presidents, ministers, intelligence services, and local warlords. His insights are based on three decades of work at the intersection of business and politics.
In Open Secrets, he shows entrepreneurs, investors, and professionals of all backgrounds how to:
- Build a richer picture of people and situations than public information alone can provide
- Ask better questions and uncover what others miss
- Develop relationships that generate trust, access, and opportunity
- Separate signal from noise in an era of information overload
- Spot hidden risks, incentives, and assumptions before they become costly mistakes
- Negotiate more effectively by understanding what others truly value
The intelligence mindset is not about secrets. It is about curiosity, context, and disciplined thinking. Open Secrets shows how to use it to make better decisions in an uncertain world.
