Description
Socially Responsible IT Management shows IT professionals how to overcome the social crisis that has resulted from the wide-spread use
of information technology. By responsibly managing security threats, protecting individual privacy, reducing hazardous waste, and minimizing
other negative effects on IT staff and computer users, as well as ordinary citizens around the world, IT professionals can benefit the
society at large and reap rewards for their own organizations as well.
Scandals at Enron, Andersen, Sotheby's and Christie's, Merrill
Lynch, and Tyco are fueling a crisis of confidence in business. Regulators, voters, investors, customers, and employees are demanding
that businesses be more socially responsible. Rhetoric is not enough, all organizations need to demonstrate that they are living up to
social expectations. Erbschloe shows managers how to take charge of key aspects of their IT operations and follow a morally, ethically,
and legally correct path to success.
Audience
IT managers and supervisors. Also business managers that make some IT related decisions, managers in smaller organizations that do not
have full time IT staff, students in information management programs.
