组织的成功取决于对IT的理解以及如何从战略上利用创新来实现新的增长和竞争优势。本课程旨在提供对高科技创新特征的理解，并结合企业家精神（创建新企业）或从组织内部和外部成功创建和管理战略创新所需的领导力和管理价值
The success of an organisation can rest on both an understanding of IT and how to use innovation strategically to enable new growth and competitive advantage. This course aims to provide an understanding of the characteristics of high-tech innovation combined with the leadership and management values necessary for entrepreneurship (new venture creation) or for successfully creating and managing strategic innovation both from within an organisation as well as from outside, eg as an IT consultant. You will study the types and characteristics of innovation, as well as the major barriers to the spread of innovation. This will enable you to recognise and welcome the increased rate of change and instability in the business and technology fields. You will gain an understanding of the role of IT and information systems in encouraging, capturing and managing innovation in an organisation and how this relates to constructing better value chains by using knowledge management, data mining, data governance, decision making and business intelligence. There is input from especially the Big Data research group. You will also be encouraged to acquire Agile qualifications as an integral part of your ability to organise, manage and risk-manage large and small IT projects.
