Understanding the Scale of Technology in Organisations
5CO01 – Organisational performance and culture in practice
This CIPD Level 5 learning video explores how to assess the scale of technology within organisations as covered in unit 5CO01 – Organisational Performance and Culture in Practice, specifically addressing assessment criteria AC 1.4. The video examines work systems and equipment in use, technology implementation across different functions, and organisational spend on technology, whilst analysing how technological advancements impact worker efficiency, wellbeing, collaboration and satisfaction. By understanding both the breadth of technology adoption and its effects on workforce behaviour and organisational culture, you'll develop the critical evaluation skills needed to assess technology's true value in practice and identify areas where investment drives genuine performance improvement.
