Features: In the new era of information technology, businesses must leverage digital information technology to conduct business activities in order to adapt to the dynamic and open global business environment. This book explains in an engaging and accessible manner how managers lacking professional technological knowledge can achieve transformation and long-term benefits in the short term using information technology. It guides entrepreneurs to optimize corporate mechanisms and gain competitive advantages in the current transformation, ensuring they remain invincible. The book focuses on the paradigm shift of information technology and its connections with other historical paradigm shifts in the world. This shift was often overlooked in discussions about how to establish new types of businesses. Currently, most companies' computer operation platforms fail to deliver the information needed for corporate regeneration. These platforms are not only expensive, functionally limited, and update slowly, but they also trap businesses in outdated organizational structures. To build an open, networked enterprise, only an open, networked computer system is sufficient. Therefore, understanding the paradigm shift of technology has become a prerequisite for achieving business success in the information age. The book elaborates on the various important aspects of the paradigm shift, enabling you to predict new prospects for your company's technological innovation, reveal some confusing changes in the process of technological development, and lay the foundation for guiding the process of new transformation.
