Advanced Analytics in Manufacturing

Given the sheer number and complexity of production activities that influence yield, manufacturers need a more granular approach to diagnosing and correcting process flaws. Advanced analytics involving big data provides just that.

Cybersecurity – How Not to Lose Millions

Wherever there is a lot to lose, cybersecurity must be a priority. Imagine a competitor releasing your prototype for a rip off price only a few weeks before you were planning to go public. Your investment in research and development would go to waste.

Seminars:


Managing Design and Creativity – A Practical Exercise on Taming the Untamable

Design-lead business is marvelous and all, but how to turn your business into a design-enhanced success story? Let’s take a hands-dirty look at a couple of practical techniques and methods!


Business Management Digitalization and Business Management Culture

There are many talks about product, service, and process digitalization. There are some talks about business management digitalization, where the main focus is on using visualization software to present KPIs using a dashboard. That's not where we are going this time. We will go far beyond and discuss how business management as such could be digitalized. How can managers be more efficient by using digital tools? How can digitalization help with improving business management culture?


Whose Responsibility is Cybersecurity?

How to define the relationship between organizations' business objectives and cybersecurity? What does the management need to know about cybersecurity? How to find the most valuable fragments of your business and identify the threats affecting them? During the seminar, we'll discuss these problems and the patterns of cyber incidents as well as defense measures to be used.


How Can Change Management Support Growth?

Change management is focusing on the people side of change in the organization. It can be utilized to ensure your whole team is embracing the new direction — whether you’re fixing problems, responding to market trends, or taking advantage of new opportunities.
