DescriptionThis unit examines the critical role that business managers play in decisions relating to business information and information related systems in organisations. A socio-technical perspective and multi-level approach is adopted in studying the impact of business information systems on organisations in changing environments and their emerging strategic role. The major emphasis is on tools, frameworks and models that provide a common vocabulary to assist managers in communicating with different stakeholders and facilitate decision making in planning for, selecting, implementing and evaluating their business information systems and ethical uses. This unit focuses on the significance of effective management practices for optimising use and deriving value from business information systems, building upon the breadth of issues examined in INFS5000 relating to the nature of business information systems and their application in organisations.
