Organizational Systems Improvement
Today's competitive environment has forced information technology companies and
companies in other industries to look beyond individual process improvement to the
way their entire organizational systems work. This has resulted in firms examining
how they function internally and how they interact with suppliers and customers.
The degree to which companies can effectively understand these functions and take
steps toward improvement will continue to be a key factor in creating a sustainable
competitive advantage. This certificate provides the foundation to understand how
to make strategic changes in the appropriate organizational systems.
Project Planning
Business leaders and decision-makers are continually responsible for organizing
