The Impact of Technology on Business Operations
Adeniji, C., Adeyeye, O., Iyiola, O., Olokundun, M., Borishade, T., Falola, H., & Salau, O. (2018). Data on the impact of technological change on employees' cognitive attitude and organizational performance. Data in brief, 18, 1360-1364.
The article provides an overview of how the change in the performance of a firm is a result of the drastic changes that take place in the usage and adoption of technology. Also, based on the findings of the study, in business, technological changes stimulate the cognitive attitude of the employees as well as a positive attitude (Adeniji, et.al, 2018).
Al-Khattab, M. A. O., & Saeed, M. S. (2016). Understanding the Relationship between Use of Innovative Technology and Employee Performance: A Case of the Bank of Jordan.
The journal presents how working practices and technological innovation are important in the global markets and competitive marketplace. Moreover, the insights about how employee attitude towards technology impacts their performance, (Al-Khattab & Saeed, 2016). The issues addressed in the topic of research cut across employee performance in the event of technological adoption in business operations.
Blut, M., & Wang, C. (2020). Technology readiness: a meta-analysis of conceptualizations of the construct and its impact on technology usage. Journal of the Academy of Marketing Science, 48(4), 649-669.
The article provides unique information on technology adoption and usage among employees and consumers. The ability to embrace and accept technology as part of business operations is important in this study (Blut & Wang, 2020) . The technology readiness construct has a role to play in completing this capstone as in-depth insights on the use of technology can be drawn.
Cascio, W. F., & Montealegre, R. (2016). How technology is changing work and organizations. Annual Review of Organizational Psychology and Organizational Behavior, 3, 349-375.
The article posits that the adoption and implementation of workplace technology have changed how we work and where we work, and changed the role of management. The use of robots and wearable devices at the workplace poses a major challenge to job security and privacy (Cascio & Montealegre, 2016). The themes that emerge from the article shape the research topic at large because it can lead to significant research questions that revolve around those themes. (Ciobanu, O. G., & Neamţu, D. M, 2017). The impact and importance of new technologies in business development in the context of economic diversity. In Proceedings of the International Conference on Business Excellence (Vol. 11, No. 1, pp. 698-710). Science.
The article deviates from the impact of technology use on an organizational level to a national economic benefit. The information is crucial in the study because we are exposed to the economic value that technology has on a country through businesses that have been transformed (Ciobanu & Neamţu, 2017). Insights from various authors must be integrated into the research. Positive Technology: Designing work environments for digital well-being. Deloitte (Connor, J., Fisher, J., Guszcza, & Hogan, S, 2020).
The article advocates for better technology which does not cause harm to the work environment; rather the technology should enhance efficiency. The insights about AI and the Internet of Things bring the research to a point where the users are encouraged to regulate their use of technology (Connor, et.al, 2020). Healthier technology usage behaviors are highlighted by the authors which are significant to the study. (Gartenstein, D., 2018). The Positive & Negative Effects of Technology in Business. BizFluent.
The article provides in-depth insights into the negative and positive impact technology has on a business. The research topic capitalizes on the impact of technology on various levels of the business. For instance, technology can enhance customer data but poses a challenge of privacy (Gartenstein, 2018). The insights are important to finding solutions that can help navigate the challenges. Impact of Information Communication Technology on Business Firms. International Journal of Science and Engineering Applications (Ibrahim, S. K., & Jebur, Z. T., 2019).
Since technology cuts across ICT, integrating this article into the study can help obtain information on how productivity in business firms has been achieved through the implementation of ICT technologies such as ERP systems (Ibrahim & Jebur, 2019). The supply chain performance in business is also influenced by ERP systems. The insights support the research topic hence the need to use the source in the study (Martin, K., Shilton, K., & Smith, J, 2019). Business and the Ethical Implications of Technology: Introduction to the Symposium.
Information technology in the banking industry is also affected by technological advancement in terms of service delivery and operational efficiency (Obeng & Boachie, 2018). The productivity of employees in the banks also promotes vast knowledge of the topic of research. Also, the article cuts across the impact of IT on customer satisfaction and experience. (Paspalakis, E, 2018). The impact of digital technology on consumer behavior and business operations: A case study (Master's thesis, Πανεπιστήμιο Πειραιώς).
The article looks at the impact of technology on both consumer behavior and business operations. Consumers are at the center of the increased technological adoption and innovation of products hence changing how business operations are done because there is a need to meet customer expectations and needs (Paspalakis, 2018). Digital technologies increase the value of products and services hence the need to understand consumer behavior and sustain competition. It is a reliable article for this research topic.
The impact of emerging technologies on work: a review of the evidence and implications for the human resource function. Emerald Open Research (Parry, E., & Battista, V., 2019).
The study presents rich information about the impact of emerging technologies in the workplace. The aspects discussed and the findings of the authors have an impact on the content of the dissertation. The HR functions will be affected by technology as certain functions will be transformed (Parry & Battista, 2019). Employees will be monitored in real-time using sensors and complex algorithms that will enhance decision-making processes.
Lessons from three decades of IT productivity research: towards a better understanding of IT-induced productivity effects. Management Review Quarterly (Schweikl, S., & Obermaier, R., 2019).
The insights about productivity in business operations and organizations about technology are addressed by the article. The research topic findings and conclusions can draw from this article. IT has enhanced productivity and efficacy in business operations (Schweikl & Obermaier, 2019). The insights are detrimental to the topic of research.
The impact of blockchain technology on business models–taxonomy and archetypal patterns. Electronic Markets (Weking, J., Mandalenakis, M., Hein, A., Hermes, S., Böhm, M., & Krcmar, H., 2019).
Due to emerging technology, this article provides the benefits and effects of blockchain technology on business models and operations. It shapes how an organization operates while ensuring that intermediaries are eliminated (Weking, et.al, 2019). Time and cost are the primary factors that are reaped from blockchain technology. It will increase knowledge of how organizational behavior and operations have changed over time.
The impact of technology on business and society. Global Journal of Business Research (Wilburn, K. M., & Wilburn, H. R., 2018). The article presents information about the pressures business organizations face in terms of adopting the technology. Businesses are forced to change their processes and retrain their employees to learn how to operate robots, IoT, and big data analytics (Wilburn & Wilburn, 2018). These technologies provide a competitive advantage but they change how businesses operate. The information is detrimental to the topic of research.
