SESSION 2 – Design Your Future - 19 August, 10:30am-11:30am

There are two ways in which going digital will save time in your business:

Be more effective with the tools you have now.
Adopt new tools that are aligned with your business requirement.
In either case, success comes from designing how your business should work and then building information systems that deliver on that outcome. Using business models and requirements analysis, you can unlock the potential of your existing information systems. These same methods can be used to create the shopping list you need to make sense of the software marketplace that contains thousands of products all promising to be the answer you need to solve your business management problems.

In this session, attendees will learn the techniques and tips they need to redesign how they leverage the data and information technology that drives their business.

In this third webinar of the series, attendees will learn about the key principles of implementing your customer and finance management systems in a way that streamlines your business process now and into the future.
