This case study shows how Slavery, for example, was correlated with the other thought variables, BEFORE and AFTER Enron's collapse. Note that correlations can be POSITIVE or NEGATIVE, STRONG or WEAK, and GOOD or BAD. MI2 allows you to visualize the flow of the correlations -- and anticipate both opportunities and catastrophes. Armed with intelligence about GOOD and BAD correlations, you can determine which correlations can be harmful to your organization and which can be exploited for benefit or profit. And you can start responding to a major event -- even before it occurs!
