David's Time With Peter F. Drucker 2020.6.16 冠鼎学院（GA）——识别·培养·考验未来的领导者 Top managment's frustration with the data that information technology has so far provided has triggered the new the next, Information Revolution. Information technologists, especially chief information officers in businesses, soon realized that the accounting data are not what their associates need——which largely explains why MIS and IT people tend to be contemptuous of accounting and accountants. But they did not, as a rule, realize that what was needed was not more data, more technology more speed. What was needed was to define information; what was needed was new concepts. And in one enterprise after another, top management people during the last few years have begun to ask, “What information concepts do we need for our tasks?” And they have now begun to demand them of their traditional information providers, the accounting people. ——《Management Challenges for the 21st Century · Chapter4 Information Challenges》(Peter F.Drucker,1999)
