Information can be considered as the raw material used in
producing each and every decision taken in an organization. Organizations need to decide
regularly on what objectives to be achieved, what actions to take to achieve theses
objectives, how and when these actions are to be taken, and the resources to be used for
all these activities. These decisions are taken by all the people in the organization
who work at different level of organizational hierarchy and handle different aspect of
the organizational work.
The exact decision that in
individual takes varies from person to person and from time to time, depending on nature
of organizational tasks being performed. Also some people need to do more of decision
making as compared to implementing the decisions. But everyone in the organization needs
has to takes some decisions for which availability of adequate information is
critical.
Information is also required to convey decisions
taken to the people responsible for implementing the decisions taken, and for monitoring
the actual results achieved as the work progresses. In this way information plays a
critical role in working of every organization.
