O611 - Operations Management: Improving Processes in Service, Retail, and Manufacturing Industries

Operations refer to the activities and processes within an organization that are designed to transform inputs, such as labor, materials, knowledge, and equipment, into outputs, which may include goods and services. These processes are essential for the organization to achieve its goals and deliver value to its customers. Operations management involves planning, organizing, and overseeing these processes to ensure efficiency, effectiveness, and the optimal use of resources. In addition to the conventional emphasis on manufacturing, this course explores the domain of service sectors, including healthcare, financial services, and restaurant management.
