Rainer, Cegielski Introduction to Information Systems will answer this question for you. In every chapter,
you will see how real global businesses use technology and information systems to increase their
profitability, gain market share, improve their customer service, and manage their daily operations.
In other words, information systems provide the foundation for business.
Our goal is to teach all business majors, especially undergraduate ones, how to use IT to master
their current or future jobs and to help ensure the success of their organization. Our focus is not on
merely learning the concepts of information technology but rather on applying those concepts to facilitate
business processes. We concentrate on placing information systems in the context of business,
so that students will more readily grasp the concepts presented in the text.
