About the journal
Industrial Management & Data Systems aims to improve managerial skills by promoting awareness of new technology and related concepts and their implications for new products and processes; and to improve understanding of all aspects of management activity, facilitating better communication between functions, so enhancing prospects for more effective corporate integration. Technological aids to management cover a growing and diverse area. Using technology is one thing - being in control of it is another, and an increasingly important factor in developing managerial, communication and technical skills. This journal provides the information needed to exploit the potential of new technology knowledgeably.
