Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Inhaltsangabe:Abstract: Information companies are sociotechnological, targeted and open systems with at least one strategic business unit (SBU) that sells or rents (digital) information products. Operational activities are carried out in business units. Strategies define the broad directions for the system and for its subsystems. Visions are the targets of strategies, and specific, measurable, achievable, result-oriented and time-based (SMART) objectives need to be defined to give systems that possess a degree of inertia a concrete, measurable direction. In this thesis, both a bottom-up and a top-down approach to strategy will be taken. As an example for a bottom-up approach, a sequential, parallel, customer-oriented business strategy for the management of digital information products, a strategy that can be implemented through customer involvement in the product lifecycle, and through customer integration in the supply chain, will be elaborated. This strategy is best induced by a preceding timely shift towards (radical) product and process innovation, a limited punctuation of a long-term equilibrium of customer orientation and incremental innovation. Hybrid strategies like the one presented in this thesis are built on modular, independent and homogenous subsystems that communicate, collaborate, compete and finally agree on joint activities, manifested in plans that then are implemented by the actors involved in order to achieve the various primary and secondary objectives on the way towards a greater, common vision. Simultaneous hybrid strategies are a top-down or abstract view on this whole system. As simultaneous hybrid strategies possess a degree of ambiguity or even impossibility because they hide implementation details of the system, the ambiguity needs to be handled on the operational level when a hybrid strategy is implemented. Ambiguity can be resolved by introducing priorities for strategic objectives, by parallelizing strategy execution in regard to system structure, or by sequentializing strategy execution in regard to time. A top-level strategy first of all is responsibility, responsibility for the lower levels of organizational hierarchy. After the introduction, chapter 2 starts with the definition of central strategic terms. Then, the options for business strategies and hybrid strategies in the context of information companies are sketched. Chapter 3 essentially describes the theory of the product lifecycle, which can be [...]

You'll learn... how I went from hundreds of thousands of dollars of debt to a multimillion-dollar business in just a few years, thanks to online courses. (Introduction) who is really buying online courses today and how to cater to their interests. (Part 1) what goes into a world-class course that protects your credibility as an expert. (Part 5) a simple but super effective methodology for quickly validating that your course idea has legs. (Part 3) how to attract paying students quickly--before you've even built out the whole course. (Part 4) the four different ways that online courses can fit into your business model. (Part 2) what the landscape for online courses looks like today, and how it has evolved over time. (Part 1) Not understanding that last part is probably the biggest reason why so many course entrepreneurs fail, and it's not their fault--so much of what you hear out there is hype based on a playbook that's five years out of date I'm not going to waste your time with rah-rah energy or pie-in-the-sky success stories.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edited volume provides deep insight into theoretical and empirical evidence on how digital technologies and high-tech brands are interrelated.

It sets out to deliver a bridge between brand management and economical approaches to understanding how digital technologies and high-tech brands are interrelated. This multidisciplinary approach creates a complex compilation of different views and perspectives that sheds new light on the high-tech brands' phenomena of being an input and output of technology-driven economies.
