Business Information

In the e-business economy, managers are faced with too much data and too little meaningful information about markets, customers, products, company operations and finances. Their greatest challenge is to identify, manage and use the right information to compete. Information management is too important to a company’ s performance and growth to be delegated primarily to IT, information or financial specialists. This book is based on the idea that information management is the responsibility of every manager. Managers may not be IT specialists, but they must create the conditions for effective information use that creates real business value. Donald Marchand and his colleagues at IMD invite you to learn your information responsibilities, so your company can use information faster, better and smarter than the competition. By using the business framework of ‘ strategic information alignment, ’ this book shows how information can create business value through delighting customers, being more innovative, managing risks and being the low-cost leader in your markets and industries. Learn the why, what and how of better information use and management in your company. At last, here is a book about managing information written specifically for business managers. Developed from the executive teaching, consulting and real world research of a team of faculty who work with the world’ s leading global companies every day, this book provides managers with the mindset and guidance to leverage the company’ s capabilities to use and manage information to create business value.

This book presents the breakthrough discovery of a new business performance metric that enables global enterprises to finally answer the important question: How well does it use information to improve business? "The Information Orientation (10) metric measures 'business intelligence' by showing how effective management of information and IT, and people's behaviour with information are directly linked to business performance. 'Information is a forceful weapon in creating competitive advantages to increase customer satisfaction, employee morale and shareholder value'. -- Puis Baschera, CEO, Hilti Corporation, Liechenstein 'The technology and processes to capture and analyze information are available to us all. However, this book vividly demonstrates the link between information capabilities and business performance and provides valuable guidance to unlock the potential.' -- John S. Boardman, CEO, Dubai Aluminium Company, United Arab Emirates 'By applying the Information Orientation framework and guidelines to our business and improving our information, people and IT capabilities for customers, we have demonstrable proof that established basic industry companies can excel at growth and innovation and leverage e-business opportunities in a developing market. A recommended read for senior managers getting their companies "e-business ready" in practice, not just in theory.' -- Paul Hugentobler, Vice Chairman, Siam City Cement Company, Thailand 'The ability to visualize the relation between Information, People and IT is a key factor for improving business performance in order to maintain competitive strength.' -- Goran Lenkel, Managing Director,Skandiabanken, Sweden 'The IT industry is now representing a global $1.4 trillion marketplace - it is about time that we start to look at real performance and pay back of IT investments.
