Book Big Data Analytics as a Dynamic Capability to Enhance Customer Value Management for Sustainable Competitive Advantage

Download or read book Big Data Analytics as a Dynamic Capability to Enhance Customer Value Management for Sustainable Competitive Advantage written by Abongile Qwabe and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Big data analytics is unlocking business value by allowing data-driven decision making and enhanced responsiveness. Moreover, competencies in big data analytics are considered important in understanding market behaviour and adding to differentiation. However, despite this promise, it is still uncertain how big data analytics competency can be utilised as a dynamic capability to address an ever-changing environment. Absent is the strategic alignment, full embedment of the big data analytics competence in a manner appropriate to adapt, integrate, and reconfigure internal and external organisational skills, resources, and functional competencies to match the requirements of a changing environment. This study set out to uncover how big data analytics can be leveraged as a dynamic capability to enhance customer value management for a sustainable competitive advantage. Data was gathered through 15 semi-structured interviews with subject matter experts from South Africa's four major mobile network operators. Analysis of the qualitative interview data provided insights into how mobile network operators are embedding big data analytics competencies to enhance customer value management, the factors contributing to the effectiveness of big data analytics competencies as a dynamic capability, and how big data analytics is used for differentiation and competitive advantage. This research confirmed that there is a deep understanding of the value big data analytics competencies holds for MNOs, however, human capital assets are also key to harnessing these competencies for competitive advantage. Interestingly, though, it was evident that the technology itself is ineffective and a key role is played by the human capital that handles this data to realise its value as a dynamic capability

Book Big Data Analytics and Artificial Intelligence

Download or read book Big Data Analytics and Artificial Intelligence written by Brahim Tiguint and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In an unpredictable, dynamic and turbulent environment, firms are constrained to continuously renew and reinvent their business models and strategies to turn significant mutations of competitive environment to their advantage. Dynamic capabilities theory (DC) is a relevant framework for the analysis of the conditions under which a firm could build a sustainable competitive advantage in rapidly changing environments.The latest spectacular development of ICT and the recent rise of artificial intelligence (AI), are paving the path for an unprecedented revolution in both management and business fields. Indeed, sophisticated algorithms coupled with Big Data and the calculation power of computers, allow substantial advances in domains such as marketing, auditing, finance, logistics...and are ready to revolutionize HRM, organization and strategy among others.The main purpose of our research is to try to build a theoretical framework around AI as a meta-dynamic capability. AI will be pervasive and transversal in strategic, organizational and operational processes. AI will probably trigger fast resources transformation and optimal configuration (first order DC). Moreover, AI will also be deployed at the operational processes level (second order DC) in order to achieve strategic fit.Linking together Big Data analytics, AI and DC theory, this research aims to open new research avenues in the field of strategic management research.

Book Proceedings of the International Conference on Business and Management Dynamics 2016  Sustainable economies in the information economy

Download or read book Proceedings of the International Conference on Business and Management Dynamics 2016 Sustainable economies in the information economy written by Joy E. Akahome and published by AOSIS. This book was released on 2016-12-31 with total page 115 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cape Town, South Africa, 7 Sept. 2016 – 8 Sept. 2016. Theme: Sustainable economies in the information economy. Purpose: To share the quality academic papers presented at the International Conference on Business and Management Dynamics (ICBMD) held from 7 to 8 September 2016 at African Pride Crystal Hotel and Spa in Cape Town. As grey literature, the proceedings are the contributions made by researchers at the conference and are considered the written record of the work that was presented to fellow conference delegates. Methodology: The methodology used varies from researcher to researcher but are suitable for the studies conducted. Thus, on the one hand, studies that were subjective in nature used the interpretive paradigm, where the qualitative approach adopted made used of the interview method to collect data. On the other hand, studies that were objectively inclined adopted the positivist philosophy and used survey questionnaires to collect data. However, there were some academic papers which used mixed methodology because of the nature of the study. Whatever methodology used adhered to the ethos of the philosophies underpinning the methodology. Contribution made to scholarship: The articles come from individual researchers and each article in the proceedings is unique. Mostly, there is no general argument leading from one contribution to the next. However, it is interesting to note that in the area of economic performance it was evident that real exchange rate and net foreign direct investment contribute more towards innovations in economic growth. With regard to human capital development, papers presented evidence that there exists a definite need to explore the phenomenon of personal branding as limited scientific academic research has been done within the field of personal branding or on elements of the topic. Thus, the outcome argues that personal branding has an influence on leadership style which in turn impacts on organisational performance and related hygiene factors. Furthermore, it was demonstrated that current methods or strategies for enforcing institutionalisation of knowledge sharing within an organisation have not been successful, and, as such, new strategies are needed to reinforce efforts to nurture and invigorate the institutionalisation of knowledge sharing within an organisation. With regard to technology and big data impact on organisational performance, it was evident that system performance, memory consumption and CPU utilisation can be used as criteria to compare and evaluate big data technologies to improve organisational performance. Most of the articles’ contribution reemphasised technology education and training as a means of digitising business and improving effectiveness. Target audience: The target readership is academic researchers and business leaders who require access to the latest developments in the fields of economics, information management, business, education, development studies, social sciences and technology. It is also for policymakers and other stakeholders who need a better understanding of the impact of new developments on existing policies and regulations for their review or amendment.
