The New Ways To Do The Business

Going Digital Is The New Way To Conduct Business

While the old and approved business management concepts that we know, I mean the ones included in any current MBA program, are very important, today’s companies are evolving in a very different setting; and consequently making it inconsistent.

In this new situation where a flourishing business is the one that is connected, it is absolutely imperative for a fresh MBA program including the General Control Theory, the control engineering, the new business technologies, the Management by Exception concept automated by computer systems, the Feedback Control System and several other subjects like Internet Marketing & Sales.

As we know the CIO is the short form for “Chief Information Officer” and is a new expert, usually between the CEO and the other Directors including the Information Technology Director. The CIO doesn’t take away the IT Director’s duties, which can be an exception in small corporations.

As we know the CIO is the short form for “Chief Information Officer” and is a new expert, usually between the CEO and the other Directors including the Information Technology Director. The CIO doesn’t take away the IT Director’s duties, which can be an exception in small corporations. A CIO Chief Information Officer has an entrepreneurial expertise and at the same time with technical knowledge in Information Technologies. The entrepreneur, in general, usually has only the entrepreneurial skills; and the IT manager handles technical matters only. However, business is more and more the information system and the information system is more and more the business. Organizations are more and more digital. As for examples, we can refer to the following: the Voice over IP VoIP, the sophisticated Call Centers, the ERP Enterprise Resources Planning, the Internet, the Business Intelligence BI, the new Internet Marketing, the CRM Customer Relationship Management, etc. Therefore, to withstand a modern business environment, company administrators must learn those new ways to conduct business and how to manage those modern projects.
In other words, the current MBA will be supplanted by a CIO in a very short period of time. And a recent analysis from the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business, the principal accrediting organization in North America whipped out its members for continuing to keep a curriculum that is irrelevant when it comes to modern business methods. Today, for any business to be successful, it has to be “connected”; it has to go digital. As a matter of fact, the current MBA standard is a 60-years old curriculum. It obviously cannot be fully compatible in this digital age.
