Introduction

Technology is ever present in our human society ever since the dawn of the Industrial Revolution. It has been a major factor that has created many changes as well as making an impact in our every day’s lives. The advances of technology have drastically made us feel that we need to integrate technology into our daily activities so as to function more efficiently and effectively. Pirillo (2013) says that “ Technology is becoming increasing pervasive, and it’s easy for us to forgot just how much we rely on smartphones, tablets, laptops, desktop computers to get things done.” The purpose of this report is to discuss about both the modernist and postmodernist views and perspectives about technology in our organizations. Technology in organizations is also known as Information Technology and they refer to machines, computerized systems, which boost communications, information gathering and processing. This has allowed us to get things done more easily and quickly (Pieterson, 2016).
