Ein Buch zum Thema Informationsmanagement, das sich NICHT an IT Manager richtet. Es untersucht, wie man mit Information richtig umgeht, um einen echten Unternehmenswert zu schaffen. Mit einem einzigartigen "4-Wege"-Diagramm erläutert Don Marchand seine Ideen und untersucht vier verschiedene Möglichkeiten (Risikominimierung, Kostensenkung, Kundenzufriedenheit, Schaffung einer neuen Realität), wie ein Unternehmen Wertschöpfung durch Informationsmanagement erreicht. Marchands Kernaussage lautet: Information ist ein wichtiges Werkzeug für ALLE Manager und leitenden Angestellten, nicht nur für Experten. Seine Botschaft ist klar und deutlich, und er liefert exakt die Information die ein Nichtfachmann braucht. Dieser Band ermöglicht erstmals einem breiten Publikum den Zugang zu Wissen und praktischem Know-How führender Managementexperten.
