ADMS 2511 Lecture Notes - Lecture 11: Artificial Neural Network, Turing Test, Critical Success Factor
Document Summary
Management: a process by which organizational goals are achieved through the use of resources: people, money, energy, materials, information, space and time, resources are considered inputs, achieving goals are considered outputs. Productivity: the ratio between the inputs to a process and the outputs from that process. Consist of three basic roles: interpersonal roles.

Intelligence managers examine a situation and identify and define the problem. Decision makers construct a model that simplifies the problem. Model: in decision making, a simplified representation, or abstraction, of reality. Selecting a solution, which is tested on paper. once solution seems feasible, the decision is implemented. Number of alternative is increasing, due to innovations in technology, improved communications, the development of global markets, and the use of the internet and e-business.
