Information System Management

Traditionally, information was managed by secretaries of organisations and institutions. However, with the strategic importance of information that enters and leaves an institution, its management is now confined in the hands of trained personnel because such information if not well managed can bring down an institution. Information Management helps leaders in the process of decision making as no institution makes decision outside available information. It is also important for planning, coordination, control and analyses.
