Technology, people, and information -- take any one of these three away and there is no information system left, just software sitting unused or data nobody trusts. Yet most companies manage the three separately: IT owns the technology, HR owns the people, and everyone assumes the information takes care of itself. That separation is usually where information systems underperform.

This course is built around bringing those three components together under one integrated management approach, aimed specifically at entrepreneurs and managers who want their information systems to function as a single, coordinated tool rather than three disconnected pieces. Participants come away able to manage IS with the professionalism that role increasingly demands.
