Do you ever feel bogged down by the seemingly endless stream of data you have to sift through to get business information? Getting more data at a faster rate will not solve your problems, but knowing how to search for information will. Information Breakthrough is about changing your mindset so you can look for and extract information pertinent to the unique characteristics of your business. The book will teach you to simplify the steps to developing a system to stay on top of your business' operations. The process is explained in non-technical terms that apply to any size or type of business. Written by a management and information technology expert, Information Breakthrough will show you how to develop and use indicators that are important to your business. The indicators are meant to keep your business operating in the most direct, efficient manner. You will learn that more data is not always better and that precision and accuracy can compete against obtaining useful information. The book will teach you how to:
* Adopt a philosophy that all reports should be focused on action.
* Learn that more is not always better.
* Recognize that despite the world's advancements in technology, the speed in which we receive information has not helped our ability to manage and use it.
