Abstract: | |||||||
The impact of Information Technology (IT) on organisational structures and decision-making processes has been of interest to Information Systems (IS) researchers for a long time. Less attention has been paid to the subject by IS researchers in the Gulf States countries and, in particular, the State of Kuwait. The purpose of this empirical research is to take a general approach to the study of the impact of IT on certain aspects of organisational structures and decision-making processes in organisations in Kuwait. Specifically, this study seeks to explore managers' as well as employees' perceptions on the effect of IT usage on certain aspects of their organisational structures and their decision-making processes in Kuwaiti organisations in general. It also compares the extent of IT impact on certain aspects of organisational structures and decision-making processes in Kuwaiti government and private organisations, as well as investigating the extent of agreement between managers' and employees' perceptions.
