LMIS vs. MIS


The question now is, do we agree if Management Information System(MIS) is change to Leadership Management Information System(LMIS)?

As the webopedia.com defines, MIS refers broadly to a computer-based system that provides managers with the tools for organizing, evaluating and efficiently running their departments. In order to provide past, present and prediction information, an MIS can include software that helps in decision making, data resources such as databases, the hardware resources of a system, decision support systems, people management and project management applications, and any computerized processes that enable the department to run efficiently.

Try to think of this, if we talk about Management it simply means of managing of time,work or anything that could be managed or even people. The term Management could basically give a right to the Managers to have power over their subordinates. They might take advantage to this power to control their people. We don't like to play as puppets well in fact we could do better with our chosen field if we are just guided with proper supervision.

That's why we opt to choose Leadership Management Information System as a description for our subject if given the chance. Because as we review this definition given by the wikipedia.org, Leadership has been described as the “process of social influence in which one person can enlist the aid and support of others in the accomplishment of a common task”. So in an organization, people may be lead and guided properly in order to excel in their assigned tasked. They must not be manage nor control because all of us have our right to work independently on how we are lead and molded by our leaders.

But still, it depends to the people on how they understand the word Management. I'm just stating a fair opinion to this issue that I would latter analyze as we go on through the semester.
