ABSTRACT





This

research work investigates the effect of ICT on the performance of office

managers in selected organisation in Kaduna Metropolis. ICT has enhanced the

proficiency of office managers on their jobs by enabling them to process

accurate and relevant information within the shortest possible time. The advent

of ICT has dramatically changed the roles and effectiveness of office managers

in offices; hence there is need for availability of ICT resources/equipment in

offices as well as acquisition of requisite skills and competencies by the

office managers. Four research questions guided the study, hence, structured

questionnaire was the only instrument used for data collection and 291copies of

this questionnaire were administered in three organisations in Kaduna

Metropolis, namely; Ministry of Information, Ministry of Budget and Economic

Planning, Keystone Bank, and Christ Ambassador College. Mean score and grand

mean were used to analyse the data. The study revealed that ICT has influenced

the performance of office managers in much different ways: speedy delivery of

information, accuracy and effectiveness at work. The researcher recommends

among others that organisation should procure the latest model of ICT

facilities to enhance office managers’ functions and create opportunity for

training and re – training of the office managers to be abreast with the new

changes and advancement.
