This book discusses a holistic approach to organizations. It explores alternative organizational forms and work practices, the use and availability of information systems, evolving skill requirements, the innovative power of information technology, the creation of knowledge, and the reshaping of industrial sectors. Presents forward-looking, exciting topics. Breaks the boundaries of functionally-based, overly deterministic information literature.
Organizations should look different in the next century as a direct result of the ability to process information. This book argues for a holistic approach to organizations and the integration of IT considerations into this treatment.
