Synopsis

This course covers seven key issues for management in the field of telecommunications, under three broad headings: Telecommunications Technology, Using Telecommunications for Competitive Gain, and the Role of Management in Telecommunications Planning. Whilst no course in telecommunications can be remote from the technology, each issue is viewed from a management point of view (strategic, tactical, operational) rather than an engineering or technical one.
