Description: Organizational dysfunctions remain the norm despite decades of management attention. Year after year, management gurus take passionate positions that are mutually exclusive, contrast “IT doesn’t matter” with “IT savvy is critical.” Clever executives see opportunity amid this controversy. This course steps directly into the controversy. It is designed to equip future business leaders with knowledge needed to position their firms among the 30% that do succeed. This is a business class that will focus on the use of information technology to achieve business goals. While specific technologies are discussed, as are hot technology trends, the objective is always to clarify the underlying business principles that business and IT executives require for success. Repeatable for Credit.
