Every aspect of management in the modern age relies heavily on information to thrive. Nothing moves without information and it is generally believed that information is power and that he who has it has power. It is an important resource needed to develop other resources. Changing circumstances and environments have necessitated the need for the proper dissemination of information at various levels of management. The development and use of information management systems (MIS) is a modern phenomenon concerned with the use of appropriate information that will lead to better planning, better
decision making and better results.
In discussing this topic, certain fundamental concepts need to be understood and appreciated. Some of these are: the information concept; the information management concept; the information system concept and the management information concept. These concepts must be fully grasped before the importance of MIS can be appreciated.
In this work, an attempt will be made to examine these concepts and relate them to organizational processes and structures. In addition, management functions and the different levels of management will also be highlighted. Finally, an attempt will be made to relate the MIS to those functions and levels in organizational settings. This approach will help in explaining the importance and effect of MIS in management.
