Introduction to Information Management
Information management (IM) is about making sure the right people get the right information at the right time so they can make good decisions. It helps organisations organise, share and use information effectively, supporting smoother operations, compliance, and better services (Saffady, 2021).

Introduction to Information Management Definition
IM covers the systems and processes an organisation uses to create, organise, share and protect information so it is available in the right place at the right time (Robertson, 2005).
