Book Leadership and Strategic Management

Download or read book Leadership and Strategic Management written by Paolo Boccardelli and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-05-01 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Managers are facing unprecedented complexity, volatility, and ambiguity, quickly adapting their decision-making, leadership, vision, and strategies. Megatrends and forces of change have profound implications for business models, processes, and organizational structures, calling into question current paradigms and designing future change. Additionally, unprecedented disruptions, unforecastable in their nature, have increased the need for resilience and strategic flexibility. The book aims at tackling the potential interrelations among environmental transformations, strategic decisions, and leadership to better understand the role of external and internal factors on the effectiveness of managers. The book defines “change”: its extent, nature, and characteristics. Then, it focuses on decision-making, the role of potential cognitive biases, and how the interaction with the perception of determined environmental events affects the way in which decision-makers decide to implement specific strategies. Finally, in the light of waves of strategic change, it reviews theories on leadership and transformation by looking at the role and traits of leaders. Since environmental transformations have the potential to “disrupt” not only strategies but also decision-making processes and leadership, the book provides a review on the issue and propose an integrative framework which can be useful for both scholars and managers, especially in the fields of decision-making and strategy.

Download or read book Artificial Intelligence for Business Analytics written by Felix Weber and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-03-01 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While methods of artificial intelligence (AI) were until a few years ago exclusively a topic of scientific discussions, today they are increasingly finding their way into products of everyday life. At the same time, the amount of data produced and available is growing due to increasing digitalization, the integration of digital measurement and control systems, and automatic exchange between devices (Internet of Things). In the future, the use of business intelligence (BI) and a look into the past will no longer be sufficient for most companies.Instead, business analytics, i.e., predictive and predictive analyses and automated decisions, will be needed to stay competitive in the future. The use of growing amounts of data is a significant challenge and one of the most important areas of data analysis is represented by artificial intelligence methods.This book provides a concise introduction to the essential aspects of using artificial intelligence methods for business analytics, presents machine learning and the most important algorithms in a comprehensible form using the business analytics technology framework, and shows application scenarios from various industries. In addition, it provides the Business Analytics Model for Artificial Intelligence, a reference procedure model for structuring BA and AI projects in the company. This book is a translation of the original German 1st edition Künstliche Intelligenz für Business Analytics by Felix Weber, published by Springer Fachmedien Wiesbaden GmbH, part of Springer Nature in 2020. The translation was done with the help of artificial intelligence (machine translation by the service DeepL.com). A subsequent human revision was done primarily in terms of content, so that the book will read stylistically differently from a conventional translation. Springer Nature works continuously to further the development of tools for the production of books and on the related technologies to support the authors.

Book Big Data and Artificial Intelligence in Management  Disruptive Technologies as a success factor for decision making

Download or read book Big Data and Artificial Intelligence in Management Disruptive Technologies as a success factor for decision making written by Moritz Mayer and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2022-04-19 with total page 74 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Document from the year 2019 in the subject Business economics - Business Management, Corporate Governance, , language: English, abstract: Geopolitically, economically and technologically, the world is in a state of upheaval. Technological progress is shortening innovation cycles, processes and projects in companies are steadily gaining in complexity, and the globalized economy is producing increasingly dynamic markets. In an era characterized by the networking of the real and virtual worlds, data is emerging as the resource of the future. However, the huge amounts of data, also known as Big Data, demand that they be used effectively. As a result, management must make increasingly frequent and complex decisions. However, human working time is scarce and the question arises as to whether human capacity, intelligence and creativity can still cope with the increasing demands. Could AI, using Big Data, possibly act as a success factor, in corporate decision making? Under this question, Mayer compares the decision-making of a human with that of an artificial intelligence. The focus here is primarily on the economic goal idea. What basic requirements does an AI need? What risks open up, among other things in terms of loss of control, ethics or data protection? And to what extent are the numerous visions actually realizable in practice? From the contents: - Digitization - Big Data - Artificial Intelligence - Management 4.0 - Enterprise

Papers included in this book apply inter- and multi-disciplinary approaches to query such issues as technology-enhanced teaching and learning, smart cities, information systems, cognitive computing and social networking. What brings these threads of the discussion together is the question of how advances in computer science—which are otherwise largely incomprehensible to researchers from other fields—can be effectively translated and capitalized on so as to make them beneficial for society as a whole. In this context, Rii Forum and Rii Forum proceedings offer an essential venue where diverse stakeholders, including academics, the think tank sector and decision-makers, can engage in a meaningful dialogue with a view to improving the applicability of advances in computer science.

However, the number of areas, actors and procedures involved in the management of the different elements composing the international security eco-system, its coordination and alignment, make it a challenging issue to resolve. This book provides a fresh new approach to this complex issue, in which we all have a role to play.” Fernando Ruiz, Acting Head of European Cyber-Crime Centre - Europol “A very timely analysis that brings a much-needed international perspective to the field of security management. The authors explore the challenges confronting security management in a complex and connected world and generate new ideas to support practice and inspire research.” Professor Mark Griffin; John Curtin Distinguished Professor, Curtin University; Director, Future of Work Institute “This book presents the role of International Security Management in the 21st century in an innovative way.” Dr. Christian Endreß, Managing Director, ASW Bundesverband - German Association for Security in Industry and Commerce
