20-21 MN3425: Strategies for the Information Age
In Brief…
Constantly evolving technologies present a challenge to organisations, which need to harness their potential to contribute to business success in highly competitive and innovative business environments. Even though it is not necessary for a general manager to understand all technologies, it is necessary to understand the consequences of using technologies relevant to the business’s environment. General managers who leave the IS decisions solely to their IS professionals often put themselves and their companies at a disadvantage. The aim of this course is to address the management issues involved with the introduction and exploitation of innovative information systems in and between organisations allowing them to compete effectively in today’s information age.
