Computerized Management Information Systems and Organizational Structures (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Synopsis
This book explores the impact of new information technology on organizational structures, arguing that the literature on the subject lacks both a strong theoretical framework and a set of working assumptions. The author develops a novel theoretical framework and set of rules of measurement to classify organizations by structure, specifying the factors that favor centralization and decentralization. Applying these to recent attempts to measure change in organizational structure, the author infers the impact of the new information technology on organizational structures. The book concludes that the impact of information technology cannot be discussed in absolute terms but must be considered in relative terms and across various dimensions. With the introduction of new information technology, the role of management will change, with organizations dealing with managerial situations previously impossible due to computational limitations. Ultimately, this book provides valuable insights into the complex relationship between information technology and organizational structures, offering a foundation for further research on the topic.
