IT Management Questions

1.        What might be some of the inhibitors on organizations or institutions who newly desire a global presence?

In the light of recently witnessed technological advancement that has culminated in business branching beyond their countries of origin, there have been myriad inhibition to various business types to undertake a globalization initiative. Evidently, despite the availability of technological proponents facilitating globalization, business has been hindered from globalizing by costs drivers. In this case, branching out to various nations and setting up shop there warrants capital outlay, which some businesses lack. Secondly, existent legal frameworks may also inhibit globalization. Market into which business may want to enter into may be in states that have stringent state legal frameworks that discourage foreign investment, in which case business may fail to start there. Additionally, customer needs, wants, tastes, preferences and location also affect globalization. In the event that products are localized to a specific region, then in such a case globalization is hindered. [1]

2.        Why is that management, a relatively small percentage of the work force, has become the prime user of information technology, as opposed to the professional information workers, who make up the majority of the workforce?

The advent of information technology and proliferation into business has culminated in widespread adoption by the management. Primarily, this has been as a result of the ease with which management can decide, simulate and analyze the effects of the decisions reached. It is for this reason, therefore, that management has been the key consumer of information technology. Through the employment of various IT inputs, both hardware and software, business decisions can as easily be arrived at as they are thought of (Choi, Lee, and Yoo). Evidently, IT has made it easier for the management to collect data, analyze this data, represent it and come up with decisions and their alternatives. Additionally, infusion of IT by the management has created a platform where simulations of the effects of the decisions arrived at can be undertaken to come up with eventualities of such. Essentially, the key motivation for the high consumption of IT by the management has been the ease with which management can now perform its managerial functions such as manage, decide, organize, staff and plan (Choi, Lee, and Yoo).

3.        How does IT contribute to turbulence in the business environment?

Although IT promotes business, it can also as easily lead to changes in the constitution of customers together with their preferences. Evidently a manmade resource, IT is prone to interference and easy manipulation or selfish gains. Consequently, in such a case, IT can as easily be manipulated to give a false outlook in a business environment (Wang et al.). Through persistent replacement of the worker in the officer, IT has led to a situation where the workforce is half It and half human; thus, reducing the interaction between customers and quality customer service (Wang et al). Such a case may lead to turbulence since customer’s want human interaction and new quality every time. Finally, IT may be manipulated to give false data and even utilized in targeting specific businesses (Wang et al). In such a case, it creates turbulence in the business environment due to the resultant polarization as a result of disagreements and wars between businesses.
