From the Paper:
"The workforce cannot ignore or resist information technology, because information technology plays such a critical role in the lives of the organizations, which causes the organizations to become fully reliant on the technology to perform their daily activities. For example, in regard to the resistance of taking advantage of new technology, I actually faced the same problem in a recently released project in my organization. We have implemented a new enterprise system to make information delivery more effective and also empower upper managers to retrieve information on their own. Some mangers were hesitant about using the new system, as some of them said the new enterprise system required users to gain more technical skills to use the system. While we were able to provide training, and ensured that the new system was just as easy to use as the remote control for the TV, still some users were unable to change and adapt."Sample of Sources Used:
