Abstract: Abstract In the previous chapter, the Information Operation Approach and the Strategic Information Alignment (SIA) Framework was presented. The SIA framework deals with issues of information use to add value, manage risks, reduce costs, and create new reality. As a result, SIA supports the business strategy of an organization. This chapter is about perceiving information in an innovative way but with a different approach i.e. in a way that can assist in measuring the use of information and managing it to enhance the business performance – through the Information Orientation (IO) Approach.
