Managing Information: Avoiding Overload book by Trevor J. Bentley

It therefore follows that managers need to know and understand their decision-making role before they can define their information needs with any accuracy. The book is structured in three parts: Part 1 covers the impact of the information revolution on society, organizations and individuals as well as including a section on the importance of 'getting connected' Part 2 provides a guide for managers to understanding the basics of information management Part 3 shows that managers need to be proactive in gathering, constructing and using information effectively This practical book gives hands-on guidance to any manager keen to control and manage information overload Packed full of case studies, examples and mini exercises Published By Cima on 1998
