Stategic Analytics

Catalog description

Strategic Analytics calls for viewing organizations as a whole and as entities adapting to and acting upon their external environments. Understanding external environments, articulating an inspiring mission, developing an appreciation for, and building new, capabilities are critical to the formulation of strategies that will succeed on the national and global levels. The content and process of the capstone course have been designed to provide a rigorous, integrative experience in analytics theories in a variety of environments. Through lectures and discussions of articles, students are exposed to seminal theory on analytics. In addition, leadership specific, integrative thinking and communication skills are developed throughout the discussions of the articles and cases. This course is project based. Students will develop an organizational strategy based on the knowledge they obtained from their ANL courses, for an organization.
