(Further details about the authors can be found inside the book.) Klappentext Ob beruflich oder privat - ständig werden wir mit Informationen regelrecht überschwemmt. Bisher wurde zwar viel darüber geschrieben, wie der enorme Informationsüberschuss zum Vorteil und Nutzen des Unternehmens eingedämmt werden kann. Wie ein Unternehmen aber tatsächlich ermitteln kann, ob es Information effektiv nutzt und dadurch ein besseres Geschäftsergebnis erzielt, blieb dabei unberücksichtigt. Dieses Buch schafft Abhilfe: "Making the Invisible Visible" zeigt Ihnen, wie Sie die "Informationsorientierung" (IO) in ihrem Unternehmen messen können. Ausgehend von einem großangelegten internationalen Forschungsprojekt des IMD und Andersen Consulting wird dargestellt, dass ein hoher IO-Wert mit guter Performance korrespondiert und umgekehrt. Der IO-Wert gibt Aufschluss darüber, wie effizient ein Unternehmen Information nutzt und wie sich dies in der Unternehmensperformance niederschlägt. Dieses Buch zeigt Ihnen, wie sie die Informationsressourcen erkennen, messen und managen. Zusammenfassung This book presents a new way of seeing the business value of information, people and IT as well as a way of measuring and managing these capabilities in order to improve business performance. Packed with real-world examples, the book presents the best and worst practices companies have implemented to address these issues.
