For courses on Business Intelligence or Decision Support Systems.
A managerial approach to understanding business intelligence systems.
To help future managers use and understand analytics, Business Intelligence provides students with a solid foundation of BI that is reinforced with hands-on practice.
See the decision-making aspects: Managerial Approach. This text takes a managerial approach to Business Intelligence (BI), emphasizing the applications and implementations behind the
concepts. This approach allows students to understand how BI works in a way that will help them adopt these technologies in future managerial roles.
Put the concepts into action: Access to the Teradata Network. Teradata University Network (TUN) is a free learning portal sponsored by Teradata, a division of NCR, whose objective is to help
faculty learn, teach, communicate, and collaborate with others in the field of BI. Teradata also supports a student portal (teradatastudentnetwork.com) that contains a variety of learning
resources such as cases, Web seminars, tutorials, exercises, links to sources, and more. Business Intelligence is interconnected with TUN via various hands-on assignments provided in all
chapters and is accessible to students through the portal.
Understand the context: Real-world Orientation. Extensive, vivid examples from large corporations, small businesses, and government and not-for-profit agencies make the difficult concepts
more accessible and relevant. International examples of global competition, partnerships, and trade are also provided throughout. These real-world case studies show students the capabilities of
BI, its cost and justification, and the innovative ways real corporations are using BI in their operations.
