Abstract

The advent of new information technology has radically changed the end-user computing environment over the past decade. To enhance their management decision-making capability, many organizations have made significant investments in business intelligence (BI) systems. In order to achieve increased and sustainable business results, organizations need to use suitable strategy to engage personnel. This research is a correlational study and aims to explain and clarify the inter-relationships and the interaction effects among business intelligence systems maturity and employees' intelligences. The survey sample population consisted of 361 randomly taken employees and managers who applied BIS in their companies, according to a cluster random sampling skim. To examine the hypothesis we used Spearman’s rank correlation and Z test. Fuzzy AHP was used for ranking of criteria. An important part of the results revealed business intelligence systems maturity relates directly with Logical intelligence, Cultural intelligence and Emotional intelligence.
