Management and Information Technology: New Challenges

Book excerpt: This fifteen-chapter monograph edited by Joanna Paliszkiewicz is an interesting read that focuses on light to moderate topics in the areas of management and information technology. The topics are from cryptocurrencies and their online exchanges in Poland to using the concept of blockchain in agribusiness, using virtual reality, creating knowledge and innovation in family businesses, the importance of social media in education, risk analysis, security and forensic science, and effective communication in enterprises. The monograph continues with topics of CRM/ERP implementation in SMEs in Poland, big data/agri-food industry and innovative solution for knowledge management, the impact of digital technologies on competences, digitization in agriculture, and the impact of merchandising on consumer behaviour. Although there is little connection in terms of reading structure form one chapter to the next, each chapter uniquely stands alone to offer insights into the topic it examines in a very simple and understandable manner.
