| Popis: |
The concept of hybrid managers and the need for them is outlined. The provision of hybrid managers with IT skills by means of “conversion type M.Sc. courses” is discussed and the development and operation of such a course by the University of Sunderland is described. This course is particularly innovative in that it operates in four distinct modes at Sunderland and a distance learning mode elsewhere in the UK and also at sites overseas. Case studies are presented of students who have become true hybrid managers following their successful completion of the course. Finally guidelines are proposed regarding the knowledge, skills and abilities (KSA) which managers need to possess in order to effectively participate in the information systems arena. |
