Summary: The present article refers to the circumstances under which the management of the organisations takes place nowadays in an information oriented society, where the key to the success is the capacity of receiving, storing and transmitting information efficiently and at a proper time. Toe turbulent setting, in which the organisations act, implies the increase of unstructured problems, therefore, the information should be considered as a decision support as well as a component of that decision and also as something that influences it, that is, as a resource for management. The information appears as an integrating part of the management processes. Nevertheless, it can not be regarded as an abstract entity: the organisation has to define the information strategically relevant for its business. Consequently, the information should be seen as a resource in economical terms, that is why it has to be managed as any other resource. Nowadays, the management of the organisations is, more than anything else, to work and process information.

Le contexte turbulant, ou les organisations exercent leur action, implique l'augmentation de la quantité de problèmes non structurés. Par conséquent l'information doit être envisagée comme un support de la décision, comme une partie qui la constitue, ainsi que quelque chose qui la conditionne, c'est à dire, comme un ressource de la gestion. L'information apparait comme une partie intégrante des processos de gestion. Cependant, elle ne peut pas être considerée une entité abstraite: l'organisation devra définir l'information stratégique pour les négoces. Ainsi, l'information doit être envisagée comme un ressource économique et elle doit être gerée comme tous les autres ressources. Actuellement, la gestion des organisations consiste fondamentallement à travailler et à traiter l'information.O presente artigo alude às circunstâncias em que actualmente a gestão das organizações se desenrola, numa sociedade denominada da informação, onde a chave para o sucesso passou, em grande parte, a residir na capacidade de receber, armazenar e difundir informações de modo eficiente e em tempo oportuno. O cenário de turbulência em que as organizações actuam implica o aumento da quantidade de problemas não estruturados e a informação deve então ser encarada como um suporte da decisão, mas também um envolvente dessa decisão e algo que a condiciona, ou seja, como um recurso de gestão. Ela aparece como uma parte integrante dos processos de gestão. No entanto não pode ser tomada como uma entidade abstracta: a organização deverá definir o que é para ela a informação de valor estratégico para o seu negócio. Consequentemente, a informação deve passar a ser encarada como um recurso em termos económicos e, tal como os outros recursos, ela tem que ser gerida. Ou seja, a gestão das organizações é, actualmente, mais que qualquer outra coisa, trabalhar e processar informação.Universidade Católica Portuguesa1999-01-01T00:00:00Zjournal articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://doi.org/10.7559/gestaoedesenvolvimento.1999.673oai:ojs.revistas.ucp.pt:article/673Gestão e Desenvolvimento; No 8 (1999); 171-177Gestão e Desenvolvimento; n. 8 (1999); 171-1772184-56380872-556X10.7559/gestaoedesenvolvimento.1999.n8reponame:Repositórios Científicos de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (RCAAP)instname:FCCN, serviços digitais da FCT – Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologiainstacron:RCAAPporhttps://revistas.ucp.pt/index.php/gestaoedesenvolvimento/article/view/673https://doi.org/10.7559/gestaoedesenvolvimento.1999.673https://revistas.ucp.pt/index.php/gestaoedesenvolvimento/article/view/673/610Direitos de Autor (c) 1999 Helena Isabel Barroso Saraivahttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessSaraiva, Helena Isabel Barroso2022-09-23T15:47:21Zoai:ojs.revistas.ucp.pt:article/673Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireinfo@rcaap.ptopendoar:https://opendoar.ac.uk/repository/71602025-05-28T10:25:06.358768Repositórios Científicos de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (RCAAP) - FCCN, serviços digitais da FCT – Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologiafalse
