So, the researcher tried in his first step to identify the more important of these aspects. It is showed that aspects are confined in the term and procedural concepts for these technologies. The second step captured the reasons to show that most of them are confined to the position of human resources. Some regarded them as opposites to the value as ingredients of information technology. The third step was to find a suitable alternative, and glided by the origins in organization theory during discussing the reasons and human skills.
