摘要:This study represents a pragmatic approach to understanding the current state of information glut in concert with themitigating factor of digital agility. A large US global corporation was researched for professional employee andmanagerial feedback regarding its management of an infinite and unwieldy information glut in the workplace. Thefindings were analyzed for their respective successful or failed agile technical remedies set-forth by employers toplacate the employees and mitigate the consequences of information glut. Although corporate communicationspublicly portrayed agile technologies and mobile devices as ameliorators to information overload in the professionalmilieu, interviewees and Informants differed in their interpretations. Results showed that despite the implementationof agile technologies, including mobile tech devices, employees suffered information glut from perceived overload,context collapse, culture shock, and workplace injustices that were exacerbated, not mitigated, by digital agility.
