Welcome to the Information Age The Evolution of the Information Age: Typical Example, USA Agricultural Age: The period up to the 1800s, when the majority of workers were farmers whose lives revolved around agriculture. Industrial Age: The period from the 1800s to 1957, when work processes were simplified through mechanization and automation. © Adapted from Pearson Prentice Hall

Welcome to the Information Age The Evolution of the Information Age : Typical Example, USA (Continued) Information Age: The period that began in 1957, in which the majority of workers are involved in the creation, distribution, and application of information. Knowledge Workers: Workers involved in the creation, distribution, and application of information. © Adapted from Pearson Prentice Hall

WHY? What has caused this? An information-based society has arisen. Welcome to the Information Age The Characteristics of the Information Age (Continued) An information-based society has arisen. Information Society: A society in which more people work at handling information than at agriculture and manufacturing combined. Businesses depend on information technology to get their work done. WHY? What has caused this? © Adapted from Pearson Prentice Hall

Welcome to the Information Age The Characteristics of the Information Age (Continued) What happened? Information and knowledge became assets. Those assets require: Generation/development Management (how to distribute, assign quality/quantity …etc) Storage Sell/buy © Adapted from Pearson Prentice Hall

Work processes are being transformed to increase productivity. Welcome to the Information Age The Characteristics of the Information Age (Continued) Work processes are being transformed to increase productivity. Work Processes: The combination of activities that workers perform, the way they perform those activities, and the tools they use. Productivity: The relationship between the results of an activity (output) and the resources used to create those results (inputs). Effectiveness: The extent to which desirable results are achieved. © Adapted from Pearson Prentice Hall

Welcome to the Information Age The Characteristics of the Information Age (Continued) Information technology provides the means to rethink/recreate/reengineer conventional business processes. Reengineering: The reshaping of business processes to remove barriers that prohibit an organization from providing better products and services and to help the organization capitalize on its strengths. Business Processes: Collections of activities, often spanning several departments, that take one or more kinds of input and create a result that is of value to a company’s customers. © Adapted from Pearson Prentice Hall

Information technology is embedded in many products and services. Welcome to the Information Age The Characteristics of the Information Age Success in business is largely determined by the effectiveness with which information technology is used. Information technology is embedded in many products and services. © Adapted from Pearson Prentice Hall

Reengineering efforts to attain greater productivity: Welcome to the Information Age The Characteristics of the Information Age (Continued) Reengineering efforts to attain greater productivity: Industrial Age - Division of Labor: Separation of work process into component task, with different workers specializing in each of the tasks.
