What types of IT cultures?
Data is raw fact that describe the characteristics of an event.
Information is data converted into a meaningful and useful context
Business intelligence means application and technologies that are used to support decision-making effort.
Before talk about types of IT cultures, there are have IT RESOURCES.
- People use
- IT technology to work with
- Information
There are 4 types of IT Cultures ;-
Information-Functional Culture
Employees use information as means of exercising influence or power over others. For example, a manager in sales refuses to share info with marketing. This causes marketing to need the sales manager's input each time a new sales strategy is developed.
Information-Sharing Culture.
Employees across departments trust each other to use information (especially about problems and failures for instance) to improve performance.
Information-Inquiring Culture
Employees across departments search for information to understand the future and align themselves with the current trends and new directions.
Information-Discovery Culture
Employees across departments are open to new insights about crisis and radical changes and seek ways to create competitive advantages.
