Chapter 1 circumstances at each echelon and can vary across the intelligence enterprise. These capabilities, further discussed in ADRP 2-0, include but are not limited to— e Biometrics-enabled intelligence. © Cyber-enabled intelligence. e@ Document and media exploitation. © — Forensic-enabled intelligence. ALL-SOURCE INTELLIGENCE 1-14. All-source intelligence is the integration of intelligence and information from all relevant sources in order to analyze situations or conditions that impact operations (ADRP 2-0). Army forces conduct operations based on all-source intelligence assessments and products developed by the intelligence staff. All-source intelligence is used to develop the intelligence products necessary to aid the commander’s situational understanding and the staff's situational awareness, as well as to support the development of plans and orders and answer the units’ operational requirements. Although all-source intelligence normally takes longer to produce, it is more reliable and less susceptible to deception than single-source analysis. 1-15. All-source intelligence analysts are responsible for producing intelligence products related to threat and civil considerations based on the analysis of information and intelligence provided by the other intelligence disciplines and reporting by non-intelligence organizations. COLLABORATION 1-16. Collaboration is communication, cooperation, and coordination. It is a process where two or more individuals or groups work together on a common problem or task to achieve a common goal by sharing knowledge and building consensus. Effective collaboration includes continuous dialogue that leads to increased understanding. Effective collaboration also results in identifying dissent among participants. Collaboration requires the candid exchange of ideas or opinions among participants and encourages frank discussions when disagreement occurs. Decisionmakers should be made aware of dissent among participants and be given the opportunity to review the reasons for that dissent as part of forming an independent judgment. Creating rank barriers is not conducive to collaboration. Rank does not equate to experience, knowledge, or best analytical practice. 1-17. Intelligence professionals must continually strive to improve collaboration. The following actions can help build and maintain collaborative relationships: @ Give and receive feedback from participants. e Share credit with others for good ideas. e Acknowledge others’ skills, experience, and contributions. e Listen to, and acknowledge the feelings, concerns, opinions, and ideas of others. e Help peers or team members explain their ideas. @ — State personal opinions and areas of disagreement tactfully. e Listen patiently to others in conflict situations. © Define problems with people or processes in a non-threatening manner. e@ Support group conclusions even if not in total agreement. © Give and seek input from others when forming conclusions. e Assist others in solving problems and completing individual tasks. e@ = Share information, ideas, and suggestions. © Ask for help in identifying and achieving goals. e@ Notify others in a timely manner of changes or problems related to a task. @ = Make procedural suggestions to encourage progress toward goals. e Hold regular synchronization meetings to foster communication, cooperation, and focus collection among the various intelligence sections. 1-4 ATP 2-33.4 18 August 2014 Chapter 1 1-4 ATP 2-33.4 18 August 2014 circumstances at each echelon and can vary across the intelligence enterprise.
