They do not work well with the functional departments. The Functional departments need IT people to assist them but they usually just solve the technical problem without explaining anything.

How does MIS help in filling the gap and creating the value? - correct answer MIS people because they specialize in both software and hardware, as well as the people data and procedures that are involved with running a successful company.

Why is MIS a critical component of you? - correct answer MIS is critical to me because whatever field I enter into in the future I will need to work with the management of the information systems that I am using. Information systems surround us in the business world as well as in
our everyday lives, and we need to have a relationship with those who specialize in MIS in order to most
effectively work.
