NTIC - Integration of the NTIC on the Communication and Consequences in the Organization

Résumé du document

In addition, the word "information" leads us to the knowledge about a topic. To have information enables an organization to improve its knowledge management. Indeed, the word "information" leads us to the facts and to the analysis of facts. Communication is the transmission of information.

Theses aspects remind us of the new challenges of human resources with the NTIC. Today, the human resources function is split between countries and subsidiaries with globalization. Organizations must adapt themselves to this phenomenon.
