Digital Technology is almost at every corner in our life. IT can nurture human experience, and it can also put us in prison, IT enables us to have a voice when we need it, it can also let us share our opinion to many people with a click of a button. On other hand IT can easily be misused, it can misuse and manipulate ideas, it can be used as both enabler and destructor. Therefore IT management is needed, by looking and focusing on the positive sides of IT, and managing the negative and destructive sides, we can begin to maximise IT’s full potential. This is done while considering the negative effects of IT on human and our living situations, and using IT to help us be more mindful of future possibilities, and use it to advance technologically and benefit our societies. By being mindful of this phenomena, we can build an optimised solution to our life experiences. It is an art to focus on IT in a way that we don’t see what it will discourage. Examples of these discouragements are promoting superficiality, losing meaningful connections, and feelings of emptiness and not belonging. Also IT can be used as a tool to bully and deceive others, examples of these are hacking, sharing misinformation and lies. Therefore there are two preventing steps that need to be taken first. One is to ensure that IT is used in conjunction with other social endeavours to make things easier, and the other is to ensure that there are right infrastructures in place to make sure that misuse of IT is prevented. Then focusing on what IT can do and its possibility to optimise our living, it helps us shape our lives for the better. IT therefore is used as a means of helping us flourish and improve ourselves.
IT is part of our life now, and Information System Management is now more important than ever before. We need to be careful on how we manage IT and to also ensure that we use it to benefit our life and to take preventive measures of possible harms IT can inflict seriously. This is so that we don’t lose touch with different aspects of reality. Aspects such as misuse, misinformation, and bullying as well as its use for spreading solidarity, authenticity and empathy.
