Information Systems for Managers focuses on what students need to know to be effective managers in the digital age. Building from a discussion of fundamental concepts, Piccoli and Pigni use a practical and applied approach, not only to demonstrate the strategic importance of IS, but also to impart methods for creating and maintaining value. Far more than a summary of IS topics, the textbook empowers readers to realize the transformative business potential of IT.

This transformed Edition 5.0 focuses on managers operating in a world where digital disruption, digital transformation, digital innovation, and digital entrepreneurship have become the norm.
