INTRODUCTION The explosion of digital connectivity, the significant improvements in communication and information technologies and the enforced global competition are revolutionizing the way business is performed and the way organizations compete. A new, complex and rapidly changing economic order has emerged based on disruptive innovation, discontinuities, abrupt and seditious change. In this new landscape, knowledge constitutes the most important factor, while learning, which emerges through cooperation, together with the increased reliability and trust, is the most important process (Lundvall and Johnson, 1994). The competitive survival and ongoing sustenance of an organisation primarily depend on its ability to redefine and adopt continuously goals, purposes and its way of doing things (Malhotra, 2001). These trends suggest that private and public organizations have to reinvent themselves through ‘continuous non-linear innovation’ in order to sustain themselves and achieve strategic competitive advantage. The extant literature highlights the great potential of ICT tools for operational efficiency, cost reduction, quality of services, convenience, innovation and learning in private and public sectors. However, scholarly investigations have focused primarily on the...

...Introduction There is an increasing need for better management of Long Term Conditions (LTC) within Primary Health Care (PHC) that requires practice development processes and adaption to models of care that are person centred. Within my clinical setting implementation of a pilot scheme is underway with a common vision to work alongside the accompanying community pharmacy for better sharing of knowledge and information to enable optimum care for our mutually registered LTC patients. Analysis of evidence based practice, facilitation of roles and responsibilities, and appropriate health care frameworks will support how a plan is being developed that reflects nursing management and integrated service collaboration towards best health outcomes. Important to note that throughout this essay, reference will be made to Long Term Conditions, Chronic Conditions and Chronic diseases, these terms all relate to the same context. Evidence Mismanagement of chronic conditions is the leading cause of hospitalisations in New Zealand (NZ) (National Health Committee, 2007). The mantra ‘better, sooner, more convenient’ targets the role that primary health care in NZ must assume in order to reduce acute hospital admissions, through better management of patients with chronic conditions and, active support of high needs populations (Ministry of Health, 2011). The World Health Organisation (WHO, 2005) define long term / chronic conditions as having one or more of the following descriptions...

...CIS538 Final Exam Please respond to each item from Week 6 through Week 10 of the course textbook, covering chapters 8 through 16. These are short answer responses. Week 6 1) Describe how IT has penetrated corporate and government administrative systems. In the past, all of Corporate and government companies used to do all the business activities and day to day transactions on the book. But that is a time consuming process. So, by 1950’s , organization’s administrative started look for computer system which can be installed in the company and do every day business activities in that system. So that the organization can easily maintain all of business records and store that in database then access information whenever you need it. Starting in the late 1980s and the beginning of the 1990s new software systems known in the industry as enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems have surfaced in the market targeting mainly large complex business organizations. In many cases companies were forced to reengineer their business processes to accommodate the logic of the software modules for streamlining data flow throughout the organization. These software solutions, unlike the old, traditional in-house-designed company specific systems, are integrated multi-module commercial packages suitable for tailoring and adding “add-ons” as and when required. 2) Explain how organizations can plan for the ERP implementation to increase user acceptance and increase support for...

...The current issue and full text archive of this journal is available at www.emeraldinsight.com/0025-1747.htm Crises, scenarios and the strategic management process David Pollard and Sabine Hotho Dundee Business School, University of Abertay, Dundee, UK Abstract Purpose – The aim of this exploratory paper is to consider the strategic importance of crisis management and integration of crisis planning with the organisation’s strategy processes, in particular the utilisation of scenario planning as a crisis planning activity. Design/methodology/approach – A review of the crisis management literature was undertaken and key issues identified, subsequently strategic aspects of crisis management were developed in the context of scenario planning. Findings – The paper contains a discussion of major factors related to a strategic approach to crisis management and a more proactive approach to building relationships with the media. Particular attention should be given to the roles and responses of the media and agencies acting on behalf of the company, as both should been treated in the same way as other relatively powerful stakeholders. The authors suggest that firms can obtain significant advantages through proactive preparation for major relevant contingencies, and its incorporation into the strategic management process. Originality/value – This paper brings together the debate on the strategic position of crisis management with scenario planning processes to provide a mechanism for...
