Τεκμήριο Competitive intelligence and counterintelligence in the shipping industry: the emergence of the chief intelligence officer(2025-10-30) Kanellopoulos, Anastasios-Nikolaos N.; Κανελλόπουλος, Αναστάσιος-Νικόλαος Ν.; Kardaras, Dimitrios; Manolopoulos, Dimitrios; Siomkos, Georgios; Konstantopoulos, Ioannis; Sklias, Pantelis; Flouros, Floros; Ioannidis, AntoniosThe purpose of this thesis is to investigate the operational integration of Competitive Intelligence and Counterintelligence in the Shipping industry, emphasizing the rise of the Chief Intelligence Officer (CINO) role. The rationale for this research is a result of escalating geopolitical uncertainty, cyber threats and competition in the market, addressing the demand for systematic intelligence leadership in the top-tier Shipping companies. This study develops and operationalizes a conceptual framework to analyze the feasibility and operationalization of the CINO role, outlining several actionable pathways for its establishment and institutionalization. The research follows a mixed-method research approach (MMR) consisting of two sequential stages. The first stage applies a methodology based on social constructivism and evidence-based research (EBR) to collect quantitative and qualitative data from Shipping leaders, to capture the state of current intelligence practices in the top-tier Greek Shipping companies. The results indicate a disjointed and inconsistent approach to the application of intelligence activities. The systemic failure in terms of organizational centralization and alignment of intent and strategy is a key shortfall that the proposed CINO role is designed to address. The second stage employs the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP), to ascertain the organizational strategic motivation for employing a CINO. AHP analysis was conducted with the assistance of eighteen (18) intelligence experts and asses the key criteria, sub-criteria and alternatives associated with the implementation of the CINO role. The results provided clear support for a centralized role led by an intelligence expert, advancing an Embedded Intelligence Officer model that combines the intelligence expertise and global perspectives with Shipping industry deep knowledge. This embedded approach presents to be a pathway for strategic flexibility; as well as enhancing longer-term knowledge transfer, while reducing internal resistance to initiating strategic organizational change.
