Inhoud

In an organisation it all starts with defining a sound strategy. The strategy determines how organisations and their people execute processes, process data from these processes and change data into information on different management levels in order to measure if the strategic goals are met.
The pivotal element in this course and in this course module is “information”: the way the strategy of an organisation is shaped determines the use of data and therefore information. With Business Intelligence, organisations collect data, change that into information and with this information organisations can make better decisions.    
In this course module, the student learns what strategy is, from which parts strategy exists, what kind of steps an organisation should take in order to design a sound strategy, how an organisation can win in the market and what kind of information on what level is needed to design, execute and measure the strategy. Finally, the student will learn how the strategy of an organisation is related to the concept of strategic information management.   
The test is based on a case description of an organisation.
