Synopsis

As technology grows more effective and refined, businesses and organizations are increasingly taking advantage by automating processes that were once presided over by human workers. As businesses explore the benefits of machine learning, research is necessary to examine the effects of the integration of technology to human workplaces.

The book provides a conceptual framework, analysis, and discussion of the issues concerning organizational behavior through the lens of organizational culture and emotions. Covering topics that include data-driven organizations, the digital business models, and leadership techniques, this book is ideally designed for managers, executives, IT specialists, computer engineers, data scientists, researchers, academicians, and students.
