One of the reasons Malaysia has adopted an IT focus as government macro-policy is that cheaper labour is readily available in neighbouring countries, while skilled labour is in short supply all over Asia. The rapid erosion of labour cost as a source of competitive advantage for Malaysia means that we now have to differentiate ourselves by developing a more educated and flexible workforce. These phenomena are pushing companies to invest in new technology, mostly in the form of computers.

Ahead with IT: Route to Success, is written specifically to help the non-technical manager to understand and effectively implement information technology in a corporate environment.

The friendly design and accessible approach of this book simplify Information Technology fundamentals including making software and hardware decisions, setting up intranets, using e-mail, posting to Usenet, browsing the World Wide Web, creating your own Web sites, and participating in online training. Fully illustrated, supported by an extensive glossary and index, this book delivers timely and valuable information.

In addition to dealing with technical issues, Ahead with IT: Route to Success will help managers deal with technophobia, maintain motivation and implement change successfully.
