Information is data that has been processed and organized to be meaningful and useful. It provides insights and understanding for managers to make decisions and take actions in the organization. Input refers to raw data that has not been processed, knowledge is what individuals have learned and gained through experience, a list of talking points is just a list without context or analysis, and a decision-support system is a tool to help managers analyze and interpret data but itself is not the data that managers use.
