Building the Most Comprehensive HUMINT Course
|
Dear Decision Maker, Ray White is back on the Grey Dynamics Podcast, and this time we're talking about something. I'm genuinely excited about: the Human Intelligence Fundamentals course he's created for us. Look, I've read a lot of HUMINT material over the years.
But what Ray has put together here is different. It's not some academic theory-fest that puts you to sleep, and it's definitely not the bombastic Hollywood nonsense you might find on YouTube. This is the real deal—25+ years of case officer tradecraft, distilled into the most comprehensive human intelligence course available outside of government. And yes, it's all been vetted through the Agency's publication review board, so we're not revealing sources and methods (before anyone starts that conversation). What makes this course special? Ray doesn't just teach you the recruitment cycle or how to spot deception. He breathes life into the content through real case studies—Oleg Gordievsky, the psychology of espionage, the ethics we rarely talk about, and the history that informs how we operate today. Plus, there's a 200-page bibliography that honestly rivals anything you'd find at university. Whether you're an:
This course has something for you. Because at its core, HUMINT is about working with humans. And if you do that in any capacity, you'll walk away with tools you can actually use. We also get into the future—how do we take this asynchronous course and turn it into in-person training with role-playing? How do we adapt it for different professions? Ray and I are already thinking about what's next, and I think you'll be as excited as I am about where this is heading. If you've been waiting for a human intelligence course worth your time, this is it. Don't hesitate—sign up for the waitlist, because space will be limited in cohort 1. Listen now and see why this might be the most important course we've ever launched at Grey Dynamics. Ahmed Hassan Want to Think Like an Intelligence Officer?Most people scroll.

Dear Decision Maker, Most executives make complex decisions based on incomplete information. Then wonder why they're surprised by outcomes. After almost two decades advising leaders on high-stakes choices, I've noticed something consistent. The best decision-makers don't wait for perfect information. They use a framework to navigate uncertainty. I call it the Decision Advantage Matrix. It's simple. Four quadrants. Two questions. What do we know with certainty? What do we need to know to act?...
Dear Decision Maker, The most valuable currency in business isn't money. It's access. Six months ago, a client was struggling to break into the African infrastructure market. Two years of cold emails. Dozens of failed pitches. Zero progress. One introduction changed everything. Not to a consultant. Not to a middleman. Directly to the person who controlled $200M in project approvals. That's the power of elite networks. Here's what most people get wrong about networking: They collect contacts....
Dear Decision Maker, Western intelligence gets it wrong more often than it admits. Not because the analysts aren't smart. They are. But because they're looking at the world through one lens. I spent years in Western intelligence circles before building networks across Africa, Asia, and the Middle East. The difference in perspective is staggering. A European intelligence firm once hired us to assess political risk in a West African country. Their report predicted stability based on: GDP growth...
