Today′s managers are overwhelmed by the sheer volume of available
information. This requires a conscious management process to identify
what information is of value. Coupled with this is the speed at which
new information becomes available, creating ever‐changing scenarios on
which to base decisions. The catalyst for this change has been the
"T" (for technology) in IT. However, the objective of this course is not
to produce an expert in new technology but rather to help managers to
gain a greater appreciation of how information can empower them to
become more effective. Seeks to demonstrate that companies which manage
information strategically can radically alter the competitive potential
of their business.
