How information systems impact organizations and business firms?

  Technologies like e-mail, database systems, industry driven software, internet, even social media have become a crucial aspect that is altering the way we behave, operate, and run business.  The industrial era's machines made a great impact in the way factories functioned just as technology and information systems have changed the way we do business in the modern era.  If a business wants to be successful and competitive then the only way to do it is by implementing good Information Systems procedures. But this by itself is not alone, it is imperative that an organization innovates and stays ahead of the curve. This is important because technology in information systems changes not on a yearly basis but rather a monthly or even daily basis. This is why it is important to have innovative team members who have grown up with this technology and understand not only whats trending, but where it will lead to.
