Many senior executives talk about information as one of their most important assets, but few behave as if it is. They report to the board on the health of their workforce, their financials, their customers, and their partnerships, but rarely the health of their information assets. Corporations typically exhibit greater discipline in tracking and accounting for their office furniture than their data.
Infonomics is the theory, study, and discipline of asserting economic significance to information. It strives to apply both economic and asset management principles and practices to the valuation, handling, and deployment of information assets. This book specifically shows:
- CEOs and business leaders how to more fully wield information as a corporate asset
- CIOs how to improve the flow and accessibility of information
- CFOs how to help their organizations measure the actual and latent value in their information assets.
