Despite the fact that most corporations have departments dedicated to the management of information systems, executive education/management consultant Pearlson and Saunders (management, U. of Central Florida) make a cogent case for managers' need to know their organization's capabilities and uses of information in order to integrate information systems with business processes. Drawing on Michael Porter's Five Competitive Forces mode, they present their Resource-based View of IT resources and strategies to redesign work and make strategic decisions. The updated standard text in the field includes practical tips, discussion questions, supporting tables and figures, a glossary, and companion student site.
