Description
Join us for our annual webinar that will provide insights on how a world-class organization integrates CI into its operations. Lynn Tyson will discuss why competitive intelligence should be an integral part of a best-in-class Investor Relations program and Dell's approach both holistically and specifically to IR. Topics will include external/internal research tools, sample analyses, and overcoming obstacles such as departmental collaboration and resource constraints. This discussion should help individuals decide what is relevant to their executive management, how to measure their effectiveness and foster two-way dialogue and information flow between IR and competitive intelligence professionals within their organization.
