Klappentext

Corporations are increasing data volume at 40% per year, and database archiving storage will double every year for the next 4 years. However, just because corporations have lots of data doesnt mean they know how to use it. A company executive may look at a database and see nothing but a series of random numbers. This book teaches "the businessman" how to effectively interpret data so that these numbers MAKE SENSE! The methodologies, frameworks, and templates described herein teach managers how to first "read" the numbers, and then make intelligent decisions based on what they find. Use EIM to guarantee a breakthrough performance agenda for operational efficiency, competitive differentiation, and overall success!
