The term "organizational intelligence" is not widely used in theoretical treatments, yet the term exists.
A review of the subject matter available suggests that the term may be validly applied. However, here I wish to restrict the definition of this term to the technical field of computing.
- When computer code is written and used by an organization to perform tasks relevant and sometimes critical to their day to day activity, then vested in this computer code must exist, by definition a specific amount of organizational intelligence.
Do you think this 1st statement is valid?
2) Secondly, the gradual assemblage of data in the organization's database is also obviously representative (and perhaps to a larger degree than the first example) of an accumulation of knowledge and intelligence.
Do you think this 2nd statement is valid?
Thanks for any input in this. OTOH, if there already exists in the academic sphere formal definitions relating to the term organizational intelligence, pls point me to them.
