MARCELLO MARTINEZ

Organisation, Information, and Technologies

This volume addresses the topic of interaction among information and communication technology systems and types of organisations. The author adopts the typical standpoint of business organisation disciplines. He describes both the management criteria that guide organisational planning and the effects of new information systems on individual, group, business, and network behaviour within business systems. This text is an innovative handbook that satisfies the needs of students, as well as of managers and professionals who, in private companies or the civil service, must deal with change stemming from the implementation of new computer technologies. These processes usually require the integration of diverse forms of knowledge and skills in order to plan coherent information systems; achieve goals pertaining to quality, speed, and efficiency; perform the operational, decision-making, and learning tasks that distinguish complex organisations.
