Abstract
The contribution of the information
and technology (IT) to Indian
economy is well acknowledged.
In this context, this study
carries out a comprehensive literature
review to find the linkages
among IT, skills and productivity.
Results indicate that
majority of the studies support
the hypothesis that IT promotes
productivity and skills play the
role of an enabler. The study also
reveals three preconditions to
accept the nexus. First, it takes
time to establish the IT infrastructure
and skill building and
therefore time lag plays an important
part. Second, it is important
to have skilled workforce
and people practices to reap the
benefit of IT and turn them into
higher productivity. Third and
finally, the maturity of IT adoption
is precursor for IT implementation
and skill building.
