Overview

Technology's use has exploded, and many employees have been left behind during the COVID-19 pandemic. Organizations are constantly trying to balance people and technology within the workplace. In today's highly technological, globalized economy, it is essential that practitioners and researchers understand that people and technology do not exist in isolation from each other within the workplace. Valuing People and Technology in the Workplace: Ethical Implications and Imperatives for Success explains how philosophy, ethics, and systems theory influence the five values of people and technology development. The three main areas that are included to explain how philosophy, ethics, and systems theory relate to the five values are the three philosophical perspectives, diversity intelligence, and the workforce inter-personnel diversity talent management system. Covering topics such as ethics, organizational philosophical perspectives, and value creation model, this premier reference source is an essential resource for business leaders, human resource managers, entrepreneurs, technology professionals, students and educators of higher education, researchers, and academicians.
