Six steps to using information effectively

I have found that there are six steps in the effective use of information. Click on any of the steps to find out more about each stage and relevant training modules:

Step 1: Gaining commitment - Motivation, leadership and resources are critical for success.

Step 2: Deciding requirements - To get started you need to understand what you need, why you need it, and what results you want to achieve.

Step 3: Creating a toolkit - It is vital to have best possible tools and techniques for the job.

Step 4: Developing a map - What information is necessary, valuable and distinctive for your business success? How do you get to your goals?

Step 5: Using information effectively - Make information work for you! How to deliver valuable achievements with minimal effort.

Step 6: Gathering feedback - Find out what works and what doesn't and update the process accordingly.

Training, workshops, seminars and skill transfer

Like time and money - information is a resource. It can be used wisely or squandered and wasted. To use money more effectively you might call in the services of a financial advisor or accountant. For time you might call in a time management expert. If you want to improve use of information then you need an information coach or information advisor.

I provide a comprehensive range of training to help you and your organisation use information more effectively. The emphasis is on practical application of skills and knowledge.

I am committed to using the latest and very best training developments to provide meet your needs. All training modules can be customised or re-arranged into new course offerings to suit your specific needs. I also provide skill transfer via mentoring and facilitation services. The powerful and practical techniques produce significant, measurable business results.

My clients look for tools and techniques that provide immediate benefits and value. I've designed workshops around issues that are topical. The workshops get straight to the point - a practical approach that brings tips, guidelines, techniques, and ideas with proven business value. At present I don't give public workshops and courses. Instead I focus on the specific needs of your company and tailor our materials to address your immediate concerns.

Our half-day seminar - Information - the 4th resource is aimed at senior executives provides an overview of the need for and value from information management. It will provoke discussion that will help you ask the right questions and make appropriate decisions. The outcome of this seminar is a high-level action plan and a summary of information strategy options for your organisation.

If you are you are using data warehouse or data mining technology and you want to get even better results from it, then our two-day seminar - Business intelligence techniques will give you plenty of ideas. By focusing on how to use information effectively, we have achieved quantum leaps in benefits from technologies that you already have in place.

Enterprise Architecture provides an excellent working knowledge of the principles and practice in this subject.
