...Week 2- Individual Paper CIS/207 November 25, 2013 Week 2: Individual Paper In order to produce results, information must be communicated and shared amongst an organization. This information can be shared in various ways such as verbal and technical communications. Information within an organization is used to comprehend the importance of the input and outputs of the business processes in such ways as collaborations of ideas, sharing of concepts, rules, regulations, and business processes. Every organization has data, files, business, and personal records. Organizations have become more reliant on technology. With this reliance comes a sense of dependence on technology for daily business operations, therefore it is very important that organizations protect their information because they can easily be exposed and vulnerable to cyber attacks. The flow of information plays a major role in today’s business operations. Information can simply mean anything that has value to a company. In order for information to stay relevant in an organization it must rely on technology. All of the normal business operations need some sort of IT system to process the information in order for the business to operate efficiently and professionally. Having IT systems can save the organization valuable time in retrieving information. IT systems assist organizations from analyzing information, prevention of large-scale human error and decrease in inaccurate information. IT systems have assisted...

...at the Paperless Office concept was first introduced in the 70-ties, as a futuristic office work-style, when the first personal computers were introduced. Advances in information & communication technology has since then made the Paperless Office a feasible reality. The advantages of going paperless are many and undeniable. LEARN MORE ABOUT PAPERLESS The terms "paperless," "electronic," and "digital" are often used interchangeably to describe work which previously was done with paper, but which now has been adapted to information & communication technology (ICT) devices and software. The Information Technology Association of America (ITAA) has defined information technology (IT) in the electronic era as "the study, design, development, implementation, support or management of computer-based information systems, particularly software applications and computer hardware." IT entails processes involving the use of computers and software to create, convert, store, process, transmit, and retrieve information securely. The term has recently been broadened to ICT (Information and Communications Technology), so as to include the idea of electronic communication. To be paperless means essentially that the traditional paper-based practices-such as writing, note taking, reading, editing, communicating, and even drawing-are instead performed electronically with ICT devices and software. Much has been said and written about the paperless office in recent years, and the rapid development...

It will include examples that show how demonstrative communication can be effective and ineffective, positive, and negative for the sender. It will explain how demonstrative communication involves listening and responding. Communication is a connection between two individual people that give information to one another by accepting the senders’ purpose, grasping the content of the message, and performing a message between two individuals so that they can create a shared understanding. Communication starts when the sender of a message is organized with clear and correct proper grammar, punctuation, spelling, noun sequencing, and syntax. The steps are quite important for the senders itself when the sender speaks either to fast or too slow and it could cause a muffle speech to take into effect, or the words may be a mixture, and so therefore, it could put an effect onto the message whether it was clear or not. A good thing to remember is that the...
