about
outsmart everyone

Information is the lifeblood of spycraft — and the key to unlocking opportunity, influence, and freedom in everyday life.

In a world of infinite newsfeeds and AI-generated results, the most powerful person in the room isn't the one with the most information — it's the one who knows how to turn that information into knowledge. This is what intelligence operatives do better than anyone on earth.

For readers of Never Split the Difference and What Every Body Is Saying, learn how to adopt top-secret spy skills to gain an unfair advantage in business and life.

Packed with high-octane stories from seven years undercover and practical strategies the CIA doesn't want you to know about, Outsmart Everyone reveals how to cut through information overload, detect lies and hidden agendas, build powerful networks using CIA recruitment methods, navigate complex human dynamics, separate signal from noise, and master the art of asking questions.

These are the same elite skills CIA operatives use to hunt terrorists, learn enemy secrets, and stay alive. Now you can deploy them to win success, power, and influence in your everyday life.
