Many books covering the introduction of computers into the business environment are written by computer experts who have ignored the managerial issues involved in the changes that computers can bring. This book starts from the managerial viewpoint and shows what behavioral problems may arise and how to avoid them.
This book investigates how managers can effectively integrate information systems into business environments by prioritizing human and organizational factors over purely technical specifications. Author Mike Wright addresses the common disconnect between technical implementation and managerial reality. He argues that the failure of many IT projects stems from a lack of focus on the behavioral changes required within a workforce. The text provides a framework for identifying potential friction points during digital transitions and offers strategies to mitigate resistance.
