Abstract
Background of the Study
Technology has two major components, hardware (the tool that embodies the technology as a material
or physical object), and software (the knowledge base for the tool)” (Rogers, 2003). Information
technology has become pervasive in many Ghanaian organizations. Many view information technology
innovations as strategic organizational tools. Researchers suggest that technology applications for
example, computers, telecommunication services and software are the goals of most organizations.
Others contend that the use of the technology application services can enable organizations to reduce
its inefficiencies and errors in the job processes thus improving organizational performance.
