TL;DR

The interaction of corporate culture, leadership/management, human resources, and advanced networking and web-based applications for the successful integration of new IT products into an established and well-defined organization is summarized.

Abstract

My paper considers the impact of emerging, integrated information technology (IT) and information systems (IS) for a research and development organization. Background research was conducted during the period of 15 June - 28 August, as part of an Army Summer Faculty Research and Engineering Program grant. More specifically, this document discusses the interaction of corporate culture, leadership/management, human resources, and advanced networking and web-based applications (more commonly called an Intranet) for the successful integration of new IT products into an established and well-defined organization. The study concludes with a set of recommendations focusing both on policy and practice in an environment where many needs compete for the same scarce resources.
