Changing Computer Technology: What Can Managers Do?

Abstract

Office tasks of typing, filing, scheduling and mailing have been increasingly automated over the past ten years. By the 1990s, 20‐38 million of the 50 million office jobs will be affected by computer technology (Levitan and Johnson, 1981). Zuboff (1982) reports that there were five million data terminals in use in 1982, and the market for such terminals will increase at a 25 per cent annual rate over the next ten years.
